It's gotten this far... How much longer will society tolerate the 'crypto' insanity. I haven't spoke with a single person that remotely understands anything about the subject, yet it's a topic they usually bring up in almost every single conversation. That's in SF... can't imagine how far the madness has spread but it's finally started to annoy me as you can probably tell :). Enough is enough. I want my friends brains back on track with reality. They feel like they're on to something that will make them a lot of money. How do I bother getting between them?
I overheard a group of guys going on and on about "DODGE"-coin at a house party I went to this weekend.

It's not going to stop until they all lose their hats.

And it's going to hurt like hell for all these random middle class dudes, and senators suddenly have hot takes about how we need to regulate cryptocurrencies.

Blame Elon for that. But you know what's dumber than Dogecoin? Trust that central banks act in your financial interests. The bursting of that bubble is what spawned all of this, and it hasn't fully sunk in yet because most people kept their jobs without paying a significant price, but the bill is about to come due.
Smart people. I agree with them.
