Now, I ran across and article that made this point earlier today.
Here is a link to that article: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/crypto-know-over-why-investors-160104533.html
The article posits that blockchain has been passed by AI and it is a useless asset that is not feasible. It suggests giving over control of the business is not useful, and that the tech is dead.
If that FUD is true, we are all doomed and out a lot of capital tied into cryptocurrency. I do not believe it is, if it was the government would not be working on legislation for cryptocurrency, and so many businesses would not be investing in and growing the technology.
We will see, I hope (and do not believe) that I am not wrong. I have to admit, I know nothing of the fundamentals of blockchain technology. I briefly understand it provides security for data and is decentralized. I know that many of the thousands of cryptocurrency will go to zero, but it will remain in the long term.
Here's to hoping I (and you) pick the right long-term crypto to invest it.
