People have said "tulips and crypto" when bitcoin was at $800, $5000, $20000, and now at $50000.
I wonder when (if) it will stop?
I also wonder if crypto valuations are a reflection of truly "free market" economics. Where there is little-to-no barrier to entry as a creator or an investor, and there is complete impossibility of counterfeiting assets.
- dannyw 5y agoNo, it's not. Have you tried crypto projects? Scams and rug pulls are rampart. It's a wild west, and really not a good way if you are trying to invest in anything that's not Bitcoin or Ethereum.

- michaelt 5y agoIf someone thought bitcoins were overpriced tulips at $500, why would they change their mind when they reach $50,000?
