Pretty sure you can find other forums on the web more suited than this one. I think most of us would have a negative opinion. If I am putting words in people's mouths, let me know.

Re: What is the opinion of invest in crypto?
i will trade gbtc after big drops and quickly get out on a bounce .... i think crypto is easily manipulated , not very secure and makes a poor source of payment .
imagine selling a property and getting paid in crypto only to see all your gains evaporate the next day ...or buy socks and pay with crypto and later in the day see you paid 200 bucks for a pair of socks as it went up in value . a currency needs stability so we know what things cost us at any given point in time .

I'm not quite ready to pull the trigger and put significant money into cryptocurrencies, but I am more willing than many to concede that they will likely deserve a spot in our portfolios over time.
My idea is that eventually the gold/alternative currency portion of the portfolio will give some space away to the "winner" in the cryptocurrency space.

Big time negative on crypto as an investment...when the more commercial cryptos (those controlled by banks and governments) get going, lights out.
As a pure out speculative activity, sure why not. Speculators don’t care what something is so long as there is movement.

Crypto is good for entertainment purposes, with a budget to match. It's like going to Vegas and setting a gambling budget... you could come out WAY ahead, or not.

Keep in mind that you could lose all your hard-earned money. Better to invest in stocks.
If you have made up your mind and absolutely have to throw money at crypto, stick to bitcoin or ethereum and avoid everything else.
I agree with the first response- plenty of crypto-oriented forums out there. And reddit.com.

Folks, I'm afraid this was a spammer/spambot. It says a lot about us that such a thing can spawn a useful conversation here!

Re: What is the opinion of invest in crypto?
Sorry... The giveaways were a first post which was vague about context ("this forum") and not only offtopic, but offtopic in a spammy way (crypto). I'm sure it was working towards spamming people via PMs, or a signature link, or something. The IP was out of Bangladesh. Nothing against anybody here who might be Bangladeshi, but that's a lot of odd things all in one package.

I should program my own cryptocurrency backed by a basket of Permanent Portfolio assets.
