Why does every discussion about cryptocurrency instantly devolve into a boring repetition of the same old stale arguments?
Do you really think this community has never heard of the Dutch tulip mania?

Yes, let's talk again about how it's a Ponzi scheme, has no intrinsic value, can't buy coffee with it, it's only good for drugs and crime.
Then supporters will say you can't trust banks, fiat is going to zero, and spew conspiracy theories about the Federal Reserve.
Then someone will hype a random token, then a banker will call it all a fraud.
Every. Single. Person. on this thread knows all of this already. Is there nothing new to talk about?
