This. I can barely look at the whole thing because several years ago I almost pulled the trigger on $1000 USD worth of BTC when it was at $90. Yeah, I know it wouldn't be retire early money, even at today's prices, but it easily would have been the easiest money of my life.
I'm doing a lot of reading up, but not pulling the trigger on putting any money in. I agree with folks about parallels to the dot-com boom and bust. I think blockchain has the potential to be as transformative as they say, but that doesn't mean any particular crypto is a good investment. How do you pick out the "amazon" of the crypto world, that will survive and thrive as the dust settles? And it may not even be a currency itself, but some infrastructure company like Hyperledger or something.
