  1. UPDATE:
    Now that we're seeing the crypto market reach ATH, notice that this is not driven by any sort of use-case or practicality. It is, as it has always been in the past, driven by price speculation.

    People asking me if I still think crypto is a scam because "number is going up" have failed to understand that the entire point of this video is how "number going up" is all you care about. The technology itself is just a cover for that.

    If the industry actually found a use-case that justified its value and the harmful externalities it causes I would be more than happy to say I'm wrong, but it hasn't and it's been 15 years.

  3. Great coverage and explanation, i still use crypto and invest small bits here and there, BUT the hope is in the idea to be able to rise from a harsh system that is rigged against us. I buy shib coins with EXTRA money and see it as no different as playing the lottery. Its fun, and there's fun in hope. It is slightly better than the lottery as i can at least sell my coins and get something back, at least until the crypto market collapses{if it does)

  4. Maybe I'm just a clueless moron who just turned 50, but all of this crypto and NFT shit seems not just incomprehensible but absolutely insane. My head hurts trying to make sense of a world where a jpeg of a cartoon monkey is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, and presumably intelligent adults are dead serious about it.

  8. I remember being so confused when I heard that cryptocurrency had been legitimized. I only ever heard about bitcoin before
    when it was known as a convenient payment method for highly illegal activities. Probably why I never took it seriously.

  9. At 54:07 : When the time bomb goes off is – "He also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name." Revelation 13

  13. so much bad btc info in this video. BTC is not visa, it is comparable to fedwire. BTC is not trying to solve the problem of spending currency, but trying to solve the problem of storing value which is a much bigger issue.

  14. Evil, exploitation, and corruption are within every earthly system in which is governed by anything that’s not God… Fiat, crypto, NFT’s, people out there money in crypto for the same reason they put it in gold, as an investment. Wether it stocks, gold or crypto, wether it has intrinsic value like gold, or extrinsic value like crypto, it’s an investment. You can argue crypto is a bad investment because it has no use case, or intrinsic value like gold. Which is the main point.. but if people believe in it as a decentralized currency, which is supposedly is.. that’s still enough to make the price soar, and make profit, if the idea of bitcoin failing scares you, buy gold

  22. The level at of research putting into this video is unreal.

    Up until I watch the video my understanding of crypto currency and blockchain was fuzzy at best and I now have a much deeper understanding of what they really are.

    Thank you @JamesJani you did a fabulous job on this video

  33. BTC might be doomed but not by being owned by investors, but by politicians. US government have bought several 1000's btcs this year, more last years. We all know what the government does the moment they are the biggest shareholders.

  34. Thankyou for making this brilliant video…. This video is exposing Crypto for the evil that it is.. Meanwhile Youtube are selling ads on this video promoting Crypto…. Crypto is a Pyramid/Ponzi SCAM…. Simple…

  38. They were people who knew that since the early stages of crypto currency but never got the chance to talk about it in public and every famous person and Youtuber and investor used to tell us how amazing bitcoin is and when I tried to tell my friends they told me shut up bro you can’t know more then these people and they understood that only when they lost half of their savings in shit cryptocurrencies

  40. NO to Bitcoin

    We see every day some A-hole out there that wants to tell me and the world how smart they are by telling crypto holders how dumb we are. The only person that I know that is as dumb as you say that I am is your MOTHER. She didn’t abort you and that makes her dumb as dirt.
    I often wonder who you think you are talking to, it is certainly not me the first bitcoin that I purchased was $216. The last I sold was over $40,000.
    I should be on my knees right now thanking God that I’m not as dumb as you think I am.

    I would be really grateful if you would explain to me that if you hate crypto, where is all of your believe intelligence of Crypto currency coming from? I’m sure that everyone into crypto, are not, would really appreciate knowing who this believed intelligence just coming from.
    If Warren Buffett is reading this, he is certainly included in this message. The differences in you and he is that he has the opportunity to spread his opinion every single day of the year and he does.

  44. To be fair, even stocks are like a Ponzi. Until you cash out you haven't made any profit, in fact, you could lose all the gains and maybe more. Same shit as crypto. At least a stock could be part of a valuable company and even pay dividends. What if a lot of people sell? Even billionaires aren't billionaire until they sell, which if they do… yeah.

  45. Because inequalities as described by Gary Stevenson are making it impossible for people to get rich if they don't have rich parents, cryptos exploits this weakness of our economy and make people believe it's the only way.
