people that think that cryptosis scam don't know anything about crypto

[-] TrismegistusMx@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

You're giving real money to unregulated corporations run by tech-bros in exchange for a string of numbers that you don't understand and the promise that you'll get money back one day.

Yeah, that's a scam.

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

well that's the thing regulation is already coming, xrp for example is the first regulated crypto out there. Bitcoin and ether have trillions of dollars of investments from some of the biggest investment firms in the world and Banks all over the world are adopting it as a store of value so you go ahead and tell me that it's still a scam any more so than any other currency and I'll go ahead and keep investing in crypto.

[-] TrismegistusMx@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

It's as legitimate as any country's currency, as long as that country is being run out of some random basement closet in Silicon Valley.

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

everything that you said so far just tells me that you don't understand it. Now I'm not saying that a lot of the crypto out there and actually the vast majority of crypto out there is garbage, that's entirely true, however Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, XRP, Cardano.. and several of the most popular and legitimate companies and technologies out there are exactly that, legitimate.

giant corporations Banks and financial institutions don't put billions of dollars into investments of crypto without validating the asset

[-] TrismegistusMx@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

And everything you said so far just tells me that you're invested in your sunk cost fallacy.

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

in the past 4 years I've made $7,000 casually trading crypto and everything is just fine so whatever man

[-] TrismegistusMx@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

That's what the numbers on the account says anyway.

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

no that's cash in my bank account at this point smart guy

[-] TrismegistusMx@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

So even you recognize that it's not real money until it's cash.

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

arguing like this with someone like you is pretty pointless

[-] TrismegistusMx@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

You think this is an argument?

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Also.... In September 2021, El Salvador adopted Bitcoin as its second legally-recognized national currency alongside the U.S. dollar.

[-] TrismegistusMx@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Maybe you'll be able to retire in El Salvador.

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

it's called institutional adoption

[-] TrismegistusMx@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I believe it when I can buy a Big Mac with crypto.

unregulated corporations run by tech-bros

bitcoin CEO satoshi nakomoto has entered the chat

[-] TrismegistusMx@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

The man, the myth, the legend.

[-] deadlyduplicate@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Why does every criticism of crypto always hinge on attacking the character of the industry is some ad hominem way. Oh the tech is no good because it's "tech bros" running these companies.

[-] TrismegistusMx@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Because unregulated, greedy, manipulative, underhanded scammers doesn't have the same ring to it.

[-] Melody@lemmy.one 8 points 2 years ago

Crypto is a scam. It's yet another example of a pyramid scheme usually that seldom pays off.

I'll start taking crypto seriously when you stupid shills stop trying to get rich off of that shit and actually fucking achieve something useful with Crypto that isn't enriching yourselves or others in the hopes that you too will be enriched.

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

have fun bathing in your ignorance

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

that's okay people that are much more informed than you are making plenty of decisions around crypto as it's slowly takes over the financial world, you don't have to jump on the boat but we're still going sailing
