Slowly, over time more regulations will be adopted worldwide. This is not because regulators are scared that people are getting scammed, but because they will start limiting this world from us small fish so the banks and "qualified" investors can tke over. All the large banks will then push their own crypto, and we will be left with nothing.
In my opinion, it is in our best interest to gain enough profit so we will have the funds to become qualified investors, and be able to re-enter the markets through the banks exchanges.
What does everyone else think? Do you think the big fish will continue allowing us to do trading long term, or are our days numbered?
Well, for me, I think the big whales and corporates need small traders and investors, so that they can exchange their holdings through heavy manipulation and during our time of accumulation, they will distribute their holdings with us, so that they can make a huge profit. And I also think small investors are having the bad habit of following the crowd and because of which big whales are getting profits. But here the crypto is going to last for long-term as even we the small trader are participants and even we are equally having the rights and power to manipulate the market because if don't participate here then they will not be making sound money from the crypto market..
I think crypto will go long term in the case that it will be used as a resource means of other people, it has also some big investors and whales who are in need of this kind of system, crypto exist a long time ago and it is being popular in this age because of its convenience to others.
