Sure, agree. But I don't think that's the topic here, the general harm/good done by cryptocurrencies, the submission is talking exclusively about profits or the lack of them rather.
If I invest 100 USD in Facebook and the stock gains double its value, I now have profits, no matter how bad Facebook is for the world.
