Sometimes I think that a lot bitcoiners hope for the "end of the world" just so that BTC will rise...
I think you mistake our intentions. We "know" (right or wrong is yet to be seen) that the entire financial paradigm worldwide is doomed. DOOOOOOMED! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0A5XOIMs6D0)
Some of us are in bitcoin simply to come out the other side of the crash in much better shape than everyone else. Some of those people feel the world will be better off after the crash. I don't pretend to know enough to predict how it will come out, or if it will occur. I am betting that it will all come down, and that I'll be better off for having been in bitcoin at the right time. I'm also betting that if it doesn't all come down, I'll still be better off for having been in btc.
The crash has to happen because the excess and abuse of the past have not been cleaned but it will get way worse before it gets better and we can rebuild with a lower government and more freedom
