Here's where I'll clue you in on what you're missing and you actually need to be a bit philosophically autistic to figure this out not merely mathematically/financially autistic as Burry.

The western economy is maxed out. The elites can't suck up more wealth from the plebs and raise the inequality any further without people storming their palaces and beheading them. You see, we're at a system that is fundamentally maxed out. There's no way to go further. People are running out of ideas as to how to pull themselves out of poverty or low middle class into a bearable existence, social mobility is dead. You see, here is where cryptocurrencies come into play. Cryptocurrency, yes it's probably going to usher in some new tech, yes Chainlink will probably moon, yes BTC will become digital gold. That's all correct. But that's not what's driving the value proposition of cryptocurrency. I will tell you what is driving the value. The value of the cryptocurrency is intergneerational wealth transfer. You see, if cryptocurrency does not contribute to a new financial elite and a new middle class, the western economy will implode. Cryptocurrency is one of the parts that are forming the basis of the intergenerational transfer of wealth. This is why it's going to worth as much as it's going to be worth. That make sense to you?

Seems more like it's just a new phenomena that hasn't been seen before.

People see it as this 2deep4u thing that they're sure is going to be worth something one day, but because it's 2deep4u, they don't actually have a clue and are just gambling. The market has persisted this long because unlike stocks or forex currencies, there is nothing in crypto that serves as a wake up call that undeniably tells everyone that it's clearly overvalued (like earnings reports for businesses or economic data for currencies). It's a clown market, and the fact that it was once worth more than google or amazon while also doing nothing is proof of that.

I turned immediately bullish the moment I saw "respected" economists like Roubini, Rogoff and other bullshit academic economists predicting low prices or talking shit about cryptocurrency. You have to know those people are rentiers who derive their money from promulgating the status quo. I know the moment I read that, that cryptocurrency is going to be huge, huge bullish signal. The only real danger is that they are going to submarine it with (((regulations))).

>you might not like it but its digital gold

Gold can't be forked, copied or improved. They are in no way comparable. If people could copy+paste gold and create an identical product at no energy expense, nobody would bother picking it up off the ground if they saw it.

The only actual advantage that bitcoin seems to have over the others is that it was first, and because of that, it is the main thing people trade alts against.

>> No.16930035

>>16929957
It's a good opportunity that doesn't come around often. If they don't submarine it with regulations, i'm confident it's going to hit 100k before 2025, and 500k possibly long-term. My initial impression of cryptocurrency was that it was a speculative scam propped by money laundering, illegal shit and speculation, but the moment I heard mainstream economists attacking it, I knew there's more behind it than that. I have researched now enough to know that there is intergenerational and interclass pressure inherent in crypto, there are people who have no avenues of making money investing into it and feel shafted by the system, that number is only going to grow and it's already quite big I imagine. Then you have pure speculators who see much better gains than in traditional markets, some might be even rich bringing serious wealth into it and that number is probably growing as well the longer crypto market is functional. Then you have the technology behind it which has at least a promise of usecase and you have at least in BTC a sort of a store of value asset class emerging long-term. Yeah, I'm bullish on this. The divergence between these pressure points and negative academic opinion is easily a huge bullish divergence. Academia is always late and they will justify after the fact when BTC is 500k how and why this happened.

I don't care enough to read up on all coins. I think BTC, ETH and LINK are the good projects. But don't take my words as financial advice even for investing into crypto in general, I am sure there are many better investors than me, I am just following my instincts and in 2 years perhaps regulators will crash crypto's price or it never takes off.
