Yeah, like every other economic system. That's life, that's nature. If you dumped 10% of your savings into BitCoin in 2010, you took a great risk and this is the reward. Had you been the angel investor dumping $100000 into Google when there was no business plan, the same applies or what about people who bought domain names for common words or phrases or < 3 letter domains in the early 90s, if that was you, you would have made a mint. The early bird catches the worm.
That's the game, and you and I didn't win this round.
