One of everyone's favorite 90s kids shows had an episode that makes a lot more sense to us now. It's honestly worth a watch now.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7WPeUpcBlg

It's only 10 minutes, watch it. What did you learn, /biz/antines?

that episode explains why crypto will never become mainstream
The majority of any given crypto is held by a very very small minority
The ICO investors/founders/early miners have a disproportionate amount of coins
No one is going to want to buy into an economic system controlled by a handful of whales

I'm talking about adoption not speculation
Also the stock market has much much stronger regulations than crypto which makes it a safer place for the average investor

So many coins are dead just on distribution alone. Do an ICO giving a large majority of your supply out to speculators and then you expect adoption later? Its pure bullshit and everyone knows this

Take a look at who owns the top percentage of wealth in the world as it stands today. If I'm not mistaken the top 1% owns more than everyone else under them. Not much different, is it? People are working multiple jobs and they still can't afford to buy a house or start a family without being shackled in debt because our money has been nearly printed into oblivion.

>Can't invest in unregistered securities unless you have special authority as an "accredited investor"
>Being an accredited investor is defined as having large annual income ($300K+) or a net work exceeding $1MM (not including home value)
>The accreditation has nothing to do with actually proving your investment knowledge/ability, you are just wealthier than other investors.
kek I think you mean it's a gilded cage built in a precise fashion so that people like you can never win. Look at all the fat cats on wall street or the banks that get caught with their pants down every year for breaking the rules, laundering money, etc. but never go to jail. Just end up paying a fine that is a pittance compared to what they net in the end. Look at the congressmen that overhaul insider trading laws to make it easier for them to get away with it on top of the ridiculous salaries and benefits they are taking home already.

In a free trade system most people will inevitably stack at the bottom.

Ones that "make it" either has the drive to pull themselves up by the bootstraps or has the foresight to invest in PHYSICAL things.

>This is what would happen in the real economy if fiat currency wasn't regulated as "legal tender". Its what's happening with cryptocurrencies now, and is exactly why the governments of the world are shitting themselves and trying to regulate them.

>In a free market, a meta-market of currencies could form and be affected by the value of others within that meta-market. i.e. Trying to use the Dollar becomes untenable due to extreme scarcity, so people start using cryptocurrencies instead. The demand for the fiat dollar falls as a result of more and more people adopting the cryptocurrency as an alternative, meta-market forms.
