Tell me in one (genuine and logical) sentence why you aren’t buying BTC / Ether?

Because the intrinsic value is zero.

“Cryptocurrencies won’t decentralize finance, provide banking services to the unbanked, or make the poor rich, because the mining of bitcoins, for example, is mostly controlled by oligopolistic miners, in far-flung places such as Russia, China or Belarus.”

3 main factors have kept me from buying:

1. It is too volatile to be used as a legitimate currency
2. Seems it can be easily replaced (at least many Software Devs seem to think so)
3. Regulatory concerns

I already bought in. 😏

Buy eth, go to uniswap, and find some defi/Oracle gems. Stop being poor

Not backed by a government and I can’t even afford a single coin

Ain’t got no monies bruv.

Wallet security

That dude still can't find his password, I believe btc worth ~$10m or so

Maintain purchasing power. The Fed keeps print money, wake up boy

All my money is in DOGE

Because, uh, I could buy fractional shares of companies which entitle me to its profits?

Because I should have done it years ago

Next best time to do so is now.
