Hahahaahaah

Private islands are actually cheaper than you might think, seriously look it up

Investing in crypto right now is like investing in arpanet in the 1960s. Scalability and ease of use have to be implemented first before any of the normies jump in on it. We are decades early.

Right now people are right in saying that crypto is just one big overhyped manipulated ponzi.

I think were still at the first selloff/beartrap

we have media attention but we haven't seen mania yet

The people that talk on the news about bitcoin dont kknow shit about it

This. Right now you "own" stocks because a centralized brokerage firm has some numbers in their database somewhere saying that you do, and the company chooses to take the brokerage firm's word for it. There might even be additional layers of abstraction there - it's really bad desu

Crypto is the future - you won't just "own" stocks because some centralized authority says you do. You will own them because you hold the private keys to a smart token representing 54.34952 shares of some company, and you will automatically be paid dividends in the form of more tokens in the underlying crypto that the smart token is implemented in

Brokerage firms aren't malicious so there's no reason to need a decentralized alternative, it's actually safer to have them store your stock certificates because that way they can't get hacked or stolen by your gf or beaten out of you with a lead pipe.
