Ouch...

and people here still think they're early adopters. mainstream media has talked about btc for years now, 60-70% of americans know about cryptocurrencies. if you bought after 2015-2016 you're part of the late adopters, that doesnt mean there's not more money to be made, just that the majority of the money has already been made

This. My fucking high school age nephew and essentially all of his friends are into crypto. His school did a short unit on it, for Christ's sake. Anyone who thinks /biz/ is an "early adopter" is utterly delusional.

I hate this so much! Because of this, we have 13 year olds in biz and r/cryptocurrency. I could be trying to have a conversation with a person who I thought was an adult but is actually just 11 and they just learned about Bitcoin in their 6th grade economics class.

Literally 2 weeks after Bitcoin came out all the news organisations were talking about it.

If you bought 2 weeks from it's release you're a late adopter.

you thinking the use of crypto is to be TRADED shows how early we are
it's supposed to be used as currency (buttcorn) or gas/value for dapps (ethereum), not as a speculative tool
so you're a fucktard
of course it's similarly retarded to believe being early implies making money. people didn't get rich off using the internet in the 90s, unless they specifically set out to make money

Nice understanding of finance, dickhead.

>it's supposed to be used as currency

The free market doesn't give a fuck about what Bitcoin is supposed to be used for. Just because it's not being used as currency now doesn't mean it will be used as currency in the future. The white paper isn't some commandment from God telling people what do.

>you thinking the use of crypto is to be TRADED shows how early we are

You defending crypto shows that you're only interested in the speculation of crypto. People using fiat daily generally don't give two shits about its value against other currencies.

People know, but did they buy in? I've known about bitcoin since 2011, watched the market since 2013 and didn't buy untill a month ago. Once we surpass the previous ATH everyone will fomo in for one last final moon mission. 200k by 2021, screenshot this. Also let's not forget about bakkt.

Exactly, no one buys. I'm pic related and all of my colleagues have heard of it but won't buy. Told them about it, they watched it go up, and down, still won't buy. And these are people with money to invest.

most people are more motivated by fear than greed that is how society stays together. sociopaths are different but there is not many of them. other people like us assess the risks differently and altho fear is always stronger at equal chances but we can manage risk.

Way less than 0.01% of the world's population holds crypto.
If anything this phase is before the early adopter phase.

This is only true if people FOMO in on mass, which will happen once we breach 100k or even 1M. The question is how we will get to that point. Is bakkt going to be enough? I doubt it. If I was a whale I would buy when ever the shorts a high to force a squeeze chain reaction.
