I have nearly 1 ETH coin and 0.000-something of a BTC. That's it.
I will definitely hodl. Though, buying Crypto has been the single worst investment ever. I should've stuck my buy-in amount into a chequing account and would've been happier.

Sounds like that one time when banks were selling customers dog-shit mortgage derivatives while at the same time using customer money to bet against the exact same derivatives.
Glad that can't happen any more.
Oh! ... wait ... .

This was a really good write-up...confirmation bias for me? Sure...I'll admit it...but, still I thought it was great: https://www.vox.com/the-goods/234664...lionaires-lies
The lines that stood out in particular:
The lines that stood out in particular:
Back in February, I attended a meetup for crypto-curious women at an expensive, trendy hotel bar where everyone was very cool and nice. The part that stuck out to me the most was when the organizer said into the mic, “Whether we like it or not, it’s happening.” The pitch was that because all of these finance bros were getting rich on crypto and NFTs, then maybe we could catch up to them.
What wasn’t said, but what I heard, and what I’ve always heard when someone explains Web3 to me, was: “Yeah, we know this all seems fucking stupid. We know that most NFT art sucks and the idea of anyone paying hundreds of thousands of dollars for it doesn’t make even a little bit of sense. We know that this whole system is basically a pyramid scheme and that it’s bad for the environment and that no one has ever really come up with a good use case for it. But that’s where the money is.”

I've had my Helium hotspot for a year. It earned about as many coins as I was hoping, 51. If Helium was still worth $24 that would have been $1224. But no, It's worth $2.27 or $129. Failed experiment. Oh well.

He just loves the attention. Only thing I can explain about why he won't shut up after blowing away people's retirements, hopes, and dreams...
