Never buying into the crypto hype when several of my friends and coworkers told me to. (Maybe I would’ve made money, but probably not.)

Buying crypto is pretty much akin to buying a scratch off ticket. You might get lucky, you might not. Depends wholly on timing and aforementioned luck.

When you scratch the ticket, you get the result. But with bitcoin if you didnt sell it, chance is a few years later it got higher again.

It is still total gambling, but not like scratch tickets.
