    What’s special about crypto? I mean what is ethical about working and spending in the imperial core? And how does trading some crypto add to the depravity?

      Crypto is special because it has a huge environmental cost while mostly just serving as an investment. It is far too unstable and the cost of executing transactions are too high to serve as a currency for most purposes.

      From what I’ve seen it seems that it’s for the most part the same people getting rich off of crypto, as the ones who have gotten rich through conventional means, as they had the funds to invest early.
