I love it, other coins (and their speculation) can f off, I'll keep my Monero because I can actually pay for stuff with it, it's fast and has low fees.

I like my cryptocurrencies usable, I couldn't care less about what price they're currently at.

Is it? Avg. transaction fee is 13$ [1] and it takes hours to confirm it.

I think they're talking about Monero. It currently has fairly low fees [1]

But in 15 years you could use that money to buy 0.5 pizzas!
