......we spent actual, hard-earned dollars on a digital chuck-e-cheese token that can't even be used to buy anything without facing outrageously high fees.

Unless you have like $100 why the fuck risk buying shitcoins when you can buy a coin that has no other option than to moon if the mainnet is up and running smoothly. The lower it goes before mainnet, the better it is.

Cost me $.10 to send a transaction yesterday and got there in less than an hour. Compare that to bank fees for wiring money.

Fiat is backed by the force of government.

Congrats, you just realized that you fell for a get-rich-quick meme. By definition, for one person to get rich in crypto, many more must lose. It is just moving money around, and statistically almost everyone will lose.

I mean it's totally possible that they can keep losing trillions every year for decades and creditors will obviously keep financing them forever

I agree that real estate is the comfiest hold, but you boomers took that away from us. enjoy the housing bubble collapse btw

governments change, or change their decisions, and not in your interest
>herp derp, cash doesn't exist
yeah go ahead and hold $100k in cash. I agree that cash is better than holding money in banks though.
