Until this thread I really thought that nearly all crypto speculation was just people in tech with more money than they knew what do to with having a bit of fun. Stupid, but harmless stupid. If you get paid 300k a year, why no buy a 10k NFT for fun.

I had no idea people outside of tech were taking this stuff so seriously, I can understand a bit better why some people have essentially made it their life's mission to denounce crypto as a scam.
