Yeah they get it's a rug pull/ ponzi scheme. The more people they lure in, the more suckers there are to buy their coins and the more they money they will make.

It's all shit man, all the hype is to lure in more sucker bagholders. Who will keep driving the price up.

I was involved in the very early Bitcoin days, and it started for me as something else to do with lots of spare GPU cycles, then I started learning about the underlying tech, which I thought was quite an elegant solution for p2p trustless ledger. I still think it is.

I have not been involved for a long time though, as the original feelings I got from those early days and the community back then seems to have changed completely. Now its all bullshit shell games and scams.

Do you also consider projects like Monero to be scams?
