Bitcoin is just a means of luring people to trade their ownership of something for the ownership of nothing. This is simply the same old scheme dressed up in a new uniform. By entering the scheme the investors gave up their ownership of electricity, cars, houses, phones, debt, equity...whatever. Only to end up with a record in a ledger. That's nothing new. People have always been recorded in some way when joining such schemes. It's just that currently the ledger is digital and decentralized. Given that no one can live off of records in a ledger (decentralized or not), members desperately need new investors to exist the scheme. That's why in bitcoin you needed all that mantras about revolution, new internet, societal salvation, freedom... storytelling about the Moon... You have to lure people into the scheme somehow. Eventually people figure out what is going on and everything collapses.

Here is a good reason which'll make you buy: Just participate so you can also make money. You don't even have to buy a "whole" bitcoin to participate. You can use 1% of your wealth. Dump it when it becomes 2%. You will be risking only 1% of your total wealth.

No matter how many times you scream that "crypto has no value", "it is worthless" bla bla bla, the markets don't give af. The price tag for a coin is still $42k. You can either join, or you can cry all you want. Nobody really cares. If you are so sure about that crypto has no value, why don't you short it anyway?

Have fun staying poor.
