Hey @ricia !
For starters, you are absolutely right about the roller coaster patterns being the result of people's manipulations... Absolutely.
I don't think we should be looking at cryptocurrency as something that needs to be "invested in"...

Rather, we need to "earn" that cryptocurrency... You know, do real work for it, lift things, create things, program and design things... And when we "earn" that cryptocurrency, suddenly it will have value.

And no matter how many billions of dollars people will want to pour in or suck out of that system, it will always have the flat-line value that we all attribute it...

That's why I don't touch something like Bitcoin... That's why there are cryptocurrencies coming out called "stablecoins" that people are trying to peg to currencies or assets that are not so volatile

That's why we need to get involved in our own underlying economies, create our own markets, start hustling our goods in exchange for crypto, and enabling and creating our own currencies!

Common ya'll ! ^^
