Smooth has to be one of the biggest hypocrites in this space. Gets wealthy from cryptocurrency, then goes around and chides others for trying to do the same. To boot, he has the audacity to act morally superior about it.

I'm hardly chiding anyone for trading. I've consistently said that people have the right to do whatever they want with their own money. I also agree with tokeweed that a lot of the profit comes from the worse traders and I consider that all fair play: You step into the arena, you get what you deserve.

That's very different from cautioning unprepared non-combatants about stepping into the arena. But ultimately it is up to them (again, people can do what they want with their own money). I'm definitely against 'bans' and such.

BTW, I've made a lot less (and if asked other times, lost a lot less) from crypto than many others, mostly because I've always considered it a form of extreme speculation and limited (though not entirely) my exposure to it.
