(12/) The following post is part 12 of a super long story about how I came around to crypto. Part 11 can be found here. Part 13 here. A bit later on in 2017, the crypto markets really started moving. I don’t know what it was that kickstarted the markets, but I know that I got caught up in the whirlwind surrounding it. I got caught up in the hype. It was just MOVING. I remember at one point when ETH was around $90 or so, everyone who I knew was telling me ‘you need to sell this stuff right now!’ and I remember just calmly shaking my head ‘no’. ‘I think this stuff is worth way more than that.’
I'm a bit flabbergasted that you, a Wall Street insider, would have the idea of a thought that crypto was anywhere near pure. How the hell did you assure yourself that the crypto game was not being rigged? You can't unless you know the motives of the people buying and selling it (which you can't because it's anonymous by design). You can't even tell which people (not wallets) own a majority of the coins. I'm not judging you. Just wondering how you got into this thought process that crypto could not be rigged.
