Are You a Believer? (by Xerxes)
I have, in the past given my assessment and conclusive disdain for crypto. To summarize my overall feelings on it, I don’t believe it really serves a higher function than to allow for market gamblers to buy and sell securities.
What if you are not a market gambler? Why should you purchase a bitcoin? What can you do with it?
Consistently, the only answer I have ever received for this question is “you can hold it because it will be worth more later”. I realized I need to revise my approach to this property because I don’t think I’ll ever receive a real answer to these questions. To invest, I just need to be a believer that if/when you decide to “invest” that I am not the greatest fool (i.e., someone else will agree to pay more for my coin than I did).
