Yeah, I'm personally not into any of that, but I don't hold myself any better than those who do, I just happen to have better support system and got lucky with some skill/goals that keeps me busy. But I can't help but notice that when faced with uncertainty and job instability many choose to throw money in whatever they happen to perceive the future would be, and unfortunately a lot of those so called "investment" are hyped by other capitalizing on their fears. Economical bubbles are everywhere (real estate, NFTs, stocks, bitcoins, etc.) I do think the underlying issue is the instability in the economical system. My concern is that this trend toward job elimination and capital centralization accelerated with Covid. And governments, economist, thinkers still unable to articulate a vision/strategy for the future, or even worse acknowledge the issue. The change is consumer behaviour last year was extremely rapid, those who never bought online in their live are now buying only online and many of those changes don't seem to be reversible. I really hope I'm wrong, but the way I see it, with the current market economics and centralization, and the rate of change, a lot of us and huge chunk of our society would find itself with no prospect of work or income because our government and economical systems are just lagging behind.
