I clearly said one of the reasons was the number of crypto coin startups had gone down. I got several responses in terms of investments which is really evidence of it’s own sort.

Of note, I didn’t refer to the ROI from holding coins which is way down. I suggest it take a second and consider why I didn’t make that argument.




Not only are you shifting goal posts but you still haven't linked anything.

You just keep saying that despite those graphs being up over 700%, somehow this stat you chose and haven't sourced is down.

You haven't explained in any way why you think that but you keep saying it over and over.


So, I shifted goal posts by saying the exact same thing repeatedly. While you really want to quote an irrelevant statistic even after acknowledging it’s irrelevant.

Wow, that’s just perfect. Do you mind if I share this thread?


cryptocurrency seems to be dying off

This is your claim with no evidence, no source and no explanation.

This could not possibly be more ridiculous. Any search you do produces an avalanche of links that directly contradict what you are saying.

Your sources of absolutely nothing are not very convincing.

Is this a joke? This is like someone getting soaked in a flash flood while claiming it isn't raining. I've never seen anyone deny reality this hard, even here.

And more links to hype and monetary amounts invested in startups most of which aren’t even crypto coins startups that where funded in 2021, or gasp 2022. If you’re spending that much effort and not actually comparing the number of new coin startups let alone my other points, I am in awe of your tenacity if nothing else. Good luck, your going to need it.

Anyway, this is public so I can always just link to it.

This is what you said. Stop pretending you didn't say this and give some evidence.

The New York Times article alone says:

Investors, too, have flooded in. They have poured more than $28 billion into global crypto and blockchain start-ups this year, four times the total in 2020, according to PitchBook, a firm that tracks private investments. More than $3 billion has gone into NFT companies alone.

More than 28 billion dollars into start ups in one year.

Anyway, this is public so I can always just link to it.

Oh yeah? Twelve comments deep and you're now threatening to maybe actually link some evidence (in the future)?.

How is this not embarrassing to you? Do you try to convince people the sky is red and the earth is flat?

Why do you keep replying without evidence? Because it doesn't exist. If it did, you would have linked it already.
