I have been using crypto since 2017, made plenty of dumb trades which caused me to lose out a lot. Currently my portfolio is about 80% BTC and while the new USA admin seems they may do more damage than good to the crypto space I'm still positive about Bitcoin.

This sub seems like a meme or anti-btc sub mostly. Anybody here who isn't that way?

I mined a bitcoin in like 2011.

And I mean… Depends what you mean by “anti”

Is it a sort of a slot machine you can make short term money off of? If you’re lucky, sure.

Is it a good investment? Eh. I’d argue holding a basket of stocks is better bang for your buck.

Is it a viable future currency to buy a soda with? Hell no.

I could go on and on about this, but I think Steam's brief experiment allowing cryptocurrency purchases speaks volumes.
