Most people on this thread don't understand that it's just a better way to do transactions

Better way to get scammed. I never see big winners from Crypto. Money doesn't just come out of nowhere, its like stocks someone pays eventually.

Speculation and investimg in a crypto is the scam, it is stocks based on nothing, but as a IOU transactional tool it is no different that paper money or creditcard. Used in many places for micro transactiona at street vendors via phone app. Anything with CEO that held back coins before public offering is aget rich quick scam. Bitcoin is the only decentralized one with no person running it.
