Its price will also tumble 99% .

People motives to get into crypto are clear. They want to subtract themselves from government policy of constantly printing money. BTC takes care of that and it's a 14 years brand which is extremely politically expensive to make illegal

Let's hope this will happen. It's time this blockchain hype ends.

I think you are correct. PoS coin is worthless coin. Imagine the tales in the future -- about the potential trillion dollar economy that was invented by some internet nerds who listened too much to people that have no idea what they are talking about, and drove it off a cliff with fancy talk of proof of stake (which was actually engineered by the existing powers to ensure their continued control of global economies).

Why do you say that? What makes PoW so much more meritorious than PoS in your eyes?

From your lips to God's ears. If the price falls steeply there will be a glut of gpus flooding the market and I'll finally be able to build a pc.

Or you can do what the market is telling you to do and you’ll be able to afford a pc whenever you want

The market signals are right there

I'd like to see both if possible. Actually I would like to see BCH replace USD (or a bigger block BTC).
