The latest craziness is called BAT, which raised some USD $36 Million in 20 seconds. And now a day or two later comes with a USD $170 Million market cap + huge premine. People work for 20 years to buy a house (and this applies for a tiny % of the world's population, because for example, in my country (Bulgaria), a person with average salary will need to work at least 17 years and saves 50% of it to buy an apartment). Now every second 15-year old nerd who invested his lunch money in Ethereum (or NEM, or whatever...) some 2-3 years ago is now a f*cking godzillionaire and he can buy entire town. Not long ago I said we are in a bubble, but I was wrong. This is a f*cking disaster! Can you imagine the levels of inflation, which digital currencies can create? The great depression, Zimbabwe's inflation and housing bubble combined will look like a jokes. Maybe this was the idea behind Bitcoin. About 45 years ago Nixon ended convertibility of US $ to gold and it appears that after several years banks will "back" their fiat money with... Ripple or BallsCoin.

But hey, making money is a good thing, right? Enjoy the ride! 

You don't get it. Real financial revolution and disruption of markets is ongoing. That's why it's so insane, but it's not unsustainable because the whole cryptocurrencies market is still a misery in a big picture. So enjoy the ride, we're living in very exciting times.
