One thing I do get is how young 20 to 30 somethings involved in bitcoin like you have very little idea of the true scale of corruption in this world, yet finds it convenient to blame wall st. It's very typical - almost cute. Just hope that bubble doesn't get burst by reality.

Also, you completely missed the idea behind my statement about scale of business in comparing crypto to wall st in terms of corruption. What it means is that you must consider the proportion of outright scams and quasi legal activities within their respective economies and the time length in which they had to implement such corruption, then compare the two entities and see where all that got you in terms of the naive 'we are pure and wall st is corrupt bitch moan bitch moan'.

The only difference is the fact that smart con men deceive others, while weak and inexperienced con deceives himself first. It's a pretty obvious path these kids take to rationalize their circumstances and actions - and being very honest here it's pretty damn childish.

Bottom line is, crypto has no business bitching about corruption of others anymore. You have conclusively proven that common people who claimed to be victims of 'ultimate corruption' in wall st are mainly motivated by the desire for themselves to be the big cheese, not because of any better purpose that they constantly mouth off about.


i agree a side by side comparison would show us in the crypto scene i think as faaaaaaaaaaaaar more corrupt than Wall street !
