If you pick up a unique stone off the street with an art printed on it and value that at 50K USD (remember anybody can pickup a stone and it's not difficult to put art on a stone). And then you have a group of people trading that at 50K isn't it obvious the value will go to 0$ when their interest dries up?

Yeah we all the market will crash eventually because that is the nature of markets and of humanity, but people claiming prescience about it are either using inevitability or "taking a chance and calling it", neither of which proves anything unless they can give a precise date and relative "size" of said crash. Otherwise it's just saying "I bet the sun will come up tomorrow"
