Did you just say hotbit? A scam exchange?
[...]
Let's not over compare the Bitcoin situation back then to the current thousands of coins available today.
Chia Network is founded by Bram Cohen, father of BitTorrent. Personally, I don't find any shady with it, aside being listed on Hotbit. But yet, Hotbit isn't a scam exchange. You might be messed up with Yobit.
Of course, Chia can't be compared with Bitcoin but it's difficult to foretell anything in this market. Even Doge can increase by 100x in 2 years, it'd be no surprise if it's listed on Binance some day.
And if you're going to look for articles, they're already creating some issues that it's going to cause a shortage for storages, ssd/hdd.
That's insane. I had to pay double the price to upgrade my PC's graphic card. Now the same is coming with SSD/HDD. Along with the shortage of processors, PC/laptop market will be gone wild.
