> So it's not a valid point. Economics textbooks are not written by people trying to hype an asset. > you could say the same thing about people trying to prop up the capitalist system Sure, and the heavily manipulated housing market, propped up by QE which dramatically inflated asset prices, is a major issue facing several large economies (eg., AU, UK esp.). However homes, at the end of the day, are homes. If you're conned into overpaying 100,000 on a home whose value will drop 150k at some point because of obvious on-coming market corrections -- well, you still have a home. Crypto's market correction is "to about zero". And there's no home left. Crypto is a scam. These ideas are part of the scam. These whatabouts and fasle equivocations. It's as much a homeopath saying, "what about big pharma?"
