<p>[QUOTE=&quot;baseball21, post: 2942718, member: 76863&quot;]I have nothing invested in bitcoin and wouldn&#039;t touch it at the old levels.&nbsp; What I&#039;ve been saying is we really don&#039;t know the future of it and that the US wasn&#039;t the primary driver of the market Asia was.&nbsp; North Korea aggressively hacking the exchanges has certainly shattered confidence in some areas of the market which were major players which was always something I said would bring them down if they couldn&#039;t fend off the hackers.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Do I think cryto will have a future place in the world yes I do.&nbsp; Do I think it will ever be a place for people to use as a savings account instead of the USD, no I don&#039;t and never did.&nbsp; I can see why it could be more attractive than local currencies or appeal to the tech obsessed but I don&#039;t live in South East Asia which was the primary market driver and don&#039;t view crypto as anything more than an investment play.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s been gaining and losing thousands at a time all month.&nbsp; I won&#039;t be surprised if it comes back nor will I be surprised if a different version becomes the new bitcoin.&nbsp; I&#039;ve never had a dog in the hunt with it, but if it gets super cheap again of course I&#039;ll get some and see if a small investment can turn into life changing money again.&nbsp; I&#039;d like it better as a stock but it&#039;s worth the risk at the right price as it sits today.</p><p><br /></p><p>We do know that quite a few people changed their families position in life for several generations by not listening to the traditional economic investment advice.&nbsp; We also know that sentiment in the US about it hasn&#039;t really mattered lately and it has been living and dying off of Asia[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
