#cryptocurrency: Is it the biggest Ponzi scheme or it's future currency? I am on "its future currency side".
Reasons: 1) Earlier we use to sell physical gold to get money but nowadays everybody transacts electronically so crypto will be more convenient. (1/2) 2) With the recent scenario, nobody (countries) will trust each other so either gold or Crypto will be safe heaven.

P.S: I don't understand how crypto is mined but also don't know when will the government will print the money :-).
Again it's my personal view and invested.
