Tulip garbage? Tulip Mania lasted like 6 months, Bitcoin has been running for over 13 years. Don’t get me wrong tho, I do agree anything not being Bitcoin is garbage.

I think the reference is about the phenomenon not the actual comparison between BTC and tulip.

Tulip trading existed for many years before Tulip mania, and it was a profitable business that continues even today. Only the mania part was crazy

Oh I’m not opining on this or that coin being tulips. A lot of it is by volume.
