Do you know what AUTHORITARIAN means?

dictatorial, despotic, tyrannical, draconian, oppressive, repressive, ILLIBERAL, undemocratic, disciplinarian, domineering, overbearing, high-handed, peremptory, imperious, strict, rigid, inflexible

Nice try at deflection, though.

Principles are more important than tangible benefits?

If something is proven to not be of any benefit, just double down.

Like all ponzi schemes, it depends on the gullibility of the last investor. It will be ugly when the music stops.

Timing is everything, depends if you jumped on the wagon train when hype was hot. Then you got burned, those that waited until the pigs got cooked may have made a good return. I’m no expert.

Timing was a big deal. But I would suggest that even more important is what currency you used to buy the Bitcoin with. If an investor was trying to get out of their Argentinian, paraguayan Rwandan Zimbabwean etc currency, which were or are in the process of collapse amid hyperinflation, and bought Bitcoin with it, then they did quite well, regardless of timing. Comparing it to the US dollar is quite irrelevant to much of the wider world.
