I agree with that - I only support bitcorn as it's the only trustless, truly decentralized and secured with a monster wall of energy. The majority of the rest are scams (where people get rug pulled) or at best wild ass gambling.
I do own some in the wild ass gambling sector though just for fun. I suspect one or a few of those will make it over the long run because they are directly programmable. Bitcorn isn't programmable so if you want to do smart contracts etc., you need to do that on another layer.
Oh looky! Seems that crypto doesn't live up to its jive after all;

Hi guys,
I'd like to start a conversation on crypto-currency, particularly Bitcoin.
What do you all think about it from an investment point of view today? I have some buddies in the finance world who are quite bullish on it and claim we are just scratching the surface. Judging by the recent performance, they may be right.
For people who are investing in Bitcoin, what are you using to invest and what recommendations do you have for a new investor?
Also, how are gains taxed compared to typical stock market gains?
I read this week that over 100,000 merchants in the USA are accepting Bitcoin today.
At the same time, digital currency does scare me a bit as it seems so abstract. Curious what PatNet thinks.
Thanks guys!
