Are you sure? It's easy to send your message anonymously on the Hand, but I (and many others I've met out there in the real world) have zero interest in acquiring cryptocurrency, regardless of price or potential payoff. It seems more like the biggest tulip trading ponzi scheme in history.

I do enjoy the entertainment it's provided me since I first encountered it in 2008.

I'm not even rich... just disinterested in accumulating wealth in such a stupid manner which contributes no tangible benefit back to society.

TBH you're probably right. Most people won't use cryptocurrency directly, it'll become AWS for the financial system and people will use it every day without realizing.
