Dude seriously? I don't get it, are you trying to get into a dick measuring contest here or something?
A) It doesn't matter what the guy tells you he's got invested because you'll never believe him anyways. It's also no ones business how much money one has in their investments. If you've got a crazy sum in crypto why would you go boasting specific figures to randoms online?
B) You are aware though that many Altcoins have gone up 10 - 100x over the last 6 months right? (Some of those happen to be ones he's invested in). So even a $100 investment in the right coin 6 months ago would have more value today than your investment (if your investment is deemed to be the adequate size of holding to be able to talk about an investment?)
C) Have you considered this might just be more about you just generally resenting those invested in crypto because you feel you missed the boat and people in crypto are getting crazy stupid rich right now?
D) It's not uncommon for people in crypto to only have a very small holding of actual bitcoin right now as this is "Alt Season". Way more profitable to be heavy into Altcoins right now.
I don't think anyone here is "hyping" crypto as much as you seem to think they are right now.
I had a feeling my last post would attract a reply like yours. and I hesitated to post it but i wanted to see his response. if he said he even had a just a few $1000 invested i would say ok at least your doing as you preach. if you are going to go around starting threads that are basically to talk about how all the "fiats" are gonna collapse or what ever then you should walk the walk.
its typical that today someone can spout crap all over the web and the minuet you call them out - its a dick measuring contest.
i wonder what people would say if i starting saying "uber items are worthless junk sell out and play game XXX:" - i bet you would ask me to prove why i am saying this
Saying "loot sucks" requires 100,000,000 kills and perfect logs to prove i got 2% less than what some other player says they get. Saying hyper inflation is coming requires no explanation whatsoever. ok
point B = yes i am aware like the rest of the entire world. This happened before and it crashed from what 20K to 3K . What if someone believes in hyper inflation because of just plain unfounded claims of hyper inflation and gets scared and invests in crypto because they read something they thought was factual then it crashes and they lose a lot of $ (no never happened to me before you ask) so again if I were to go around telling people crypto is the new gold i would be sure to have my $ in it too.
as for your point C - please - everyone misses out on something i am not anti-Crypto for trading / gambling just that the hype about it replacing fiats. just because a lot of people say its the new gold doesn't mean it is. there are a lot of top investors that will tell you its worthless but of course they are just puppets of the Fiat regime - right? If you want to trade stories of "oh man if i only invested in that i would be rich" i got plenty i can look back and cry about but looking back is easy. That is not why i am calling him out. And i think you know this.
I will admit my posts seems a bit harsh but he deserved to be called out - imo - just like you did to me - and i am ok with it - your right to do so - but i have my rights too.
D) Alt season - Duck season lol i have no idea what that means but sounds like more made up crap to justify price moves - but since i don't know what it is i'll assume you are right here
maybe i did go off the rails a bit much here but i know at least one person that bought BTC at elevated levels because of FOMO and i can tell you they were probably pretty pissed off when it tanked. so while i may be over reacting its because i believe people over time will start to believe - well anything - look at the US capitol riot and you will understand - and there is no shortage of unfounded theories, posts, blogs, and of course coins and tokens that get hyped up and people get sucked in and some devastated financially. How do you think scams proliferate, they feed on people that tend to be anit-government, anti- this or anti-that and some cons artist sells them exactly what they want to hear. Crypto can be one of those or maybe it will be a pinnacle moment in human history - but right now its one big giant gamble and not addressing that fact is ignoring a pretty big issue.
