Because of mining Bitcoin is a negative sum game which mathematically guarantees that last bagholders lose money.

so his take was that he was an entrepreneur in software

But now.. its crap.
My dad tried to sell some bitcoin that i had given him earlier this year today. He sent it to coinbase from the bread wallet using the "regular" fee. It took 6 hours for his transaction to go through. 6 fucking hours. Do you know what he said to me. He said "why is this thing so good? My bank is faster than this"

Kevin O Leary is intelligent. He also held BTC at one point just like me since 2013. But I haven’t looked back since selling my bags in 2017. I’m an expert at understanding markets and I know that the only factor driving bitcoin’s Price is speculation because it’ll never be useful since it fundamentally can’t scale. But speculation is based on hype and we reached peak hype already. It’s very simple.
