Now Bitcoin is at 5100 level, Eth is at 150 level, Crypto Market Cap is around 170 Bil. USD, I know it's frustrating, but if you will look for the charts of the last bull runs, you will find that bull run comes after this period of FUD and Capitulation.
Prices may drop more than these red levels, may stay at these levels, but will never stay like that, it's not a wishthinking, but it's reality, But if you believe in crypto, you know that good news are coming, Bakket, ETF... etc.
Crypto is not a Bubble, nor a ponzi scheme, it's the future guys. Just Hodl and be patient.
And how do you convince people that this is not a bubble and a holding will bring a treasured profit. There are many investors in the market who want to profit immediately and not wait for the development of young technology and endure all its failures with it.
I do agree with you that there is a huge speculation in crypto world, and that there are many whales who control the market, but I believe that the technology behind crypto will lead sooner or later to another bull-run, or let's say bull-runs. Crypto is a futuristic thing, few people know about it, imagine when it becomes adopted by the masses...Just think about it.
