This is why i "invest" in crypto. Because people have been treating real estate as investment and i'ts gone too far.

crypto is pretty much the ONLY way i will ever afford a home without taking on soul destroying debt.

Can you expand on this? What about crypto will make it such that you can afford a home? That more people throwing in more money will increase your valuation such that you can exit to fiat and leave the bag for someone else to hold for them to hope people throw in more fiat?

Unfortunately I think you’ve nailed it. But speculation on risky assets is a symptom of desperation amidst a growing wealth gap, I just don’t see this disappearing soon. It’s a very clever scam
