Topic: Rant: I am thinking of Quitting my Interest in Crypto Currency - page 4. (Read 2441 times)

At first I thought this post was about getting tired of bitcoin price falls and can't wait for rise but it's a whole different subject of discussion.
Well, OP, everything was amazing, fun and interesting at first, I would call that time era of freebitco because that website introduced me into bitcoins. That time bitcoin wasn't commercial thing like it is now (can't mine at home, a lot of regulations on exchanges, KYC documents everywhere and etc).
That's getting boring but I'm still here because of bitcoin's possibilities, it's just nice payment method and consider this as an investment option too on long term.
If you can, get best it from it and use it for your needs, things get abused as time goes and that's why we have so terrible situation now. Bitcoin was nice when only few people knew it.

I have been watching Bitcoin since the beginning.  Not new to the jibe.  Not really a Bitcoin hobbiest, but I am thinking of becoming one.

This stuff is getting boring.

Coinbase Pro recently raised it's fees so high as to block out ordinary traders.  Binance kicked out USA traders.  Bakkt is not going to be too much different as they just keep raising the bar and implementing more rules and regulations, making crypto boring.  Gemini is just a greed machine too, while the people who own Gemini are already ultra ultra wealthy, and they just want to keep becoming more and more greedy.

It is just one thing after another everyday and it is all really boring news too.  Bitcoin is all just a bunch of greediness and politics now a days.  This is not a fun environment anymore.  It is taken over by greedy exchanges that are already rich, and they do not have to be greedy either, but the people who run the shows just sorta stuck on creating this stuff I guess.  It is taken over by people who's entire focus is just being greedy.

The actual cryptocurrency businesses out there that employ people are starting to get overloaded with pointless HR style jobs and soon half the industry will just be grouchy HR people, or grouchy bank people.  Also the crypto businesses all require college degrees, which basically guarantees that less creative people will be in there doing anything interesting.  It will be similar to how college administration departments became over run by tons of interns who are paid to just push paper and it makes college diplomas too expensive for anybody to obtain without going broke and into debt.

I also do not like all of the female-only cryptocurrency conventions and meet ups.  Why are they female-only?  Those are like giant planning committees that are planning to just take over and then add more and more worthless HR jobs into cryptocurrency company structure.  It really sucks.  It is like the whole industry is being taken over by lamo's who really do not have much interest in crypto but they can get jobs related to this stuff, and they can get in on some greedy level making everything unsustainable for everyone else.

Interesting.  There is negativity in the whole community too.  Try talking to anybody about your entrepreneurship concepts and everybody just throws mud on it like a bunch of Negative Ninnys.

End of rant.  I am thinking of taking up a new hobby.

Why not just take a break from all the crypto related stuff? Instead of quitting?

Sometimes it is better if you take your mind off with all the negativity that's been going around (bakkt disappointment, price going down, FUD, this community etc).

Just take a hike, enjoy your time with your family and friends for about a week and see how it goes for you? Seems that you have devoted so much time in crypto sphere that you are somewhat bored and burn out. Just my .2 sats.

Best of luck.

This stuff is getting boring.

I also noticed that you focused heavily on "HR girls". Did you possibly have a bad experience with one specifically? Large companies need an HR department. Considering the risk levels of their responsibilities, they can seem annoying but most the time they are just trying not to get sued.

You began your text talking about higher exchanges fees... Than you moved to jobs related to cryptocurrency, and in the end you were talking about a new hobby.
I think you are confused about what a hobby is. A hobby is something you liked not something that you use to make money (like trading or getting a nice job)

In your wall of text you didn't even mentioned the Bitcoin accomplishments, which were enormous: everyone now knows what bitcoin is, more people and stores are accepting it, banks are afraid, it is being used to help people buy things and small investors are buying it worldwide. The fundamentals man. This is what you should be talking about if it was a hobby for you.

Maybe you should move your focus from making money to understanding and loving the tech

But what really bothers people are all the annoying HR women coming to ruin everything. Honestly folks... I think we can do better than this... yeah and the Corporate Shitshow too.  All, and I mean All of us who have followed Bitcoin since the beginning are leary of that grouchy HR women inflantrating Crypto Businesses Everywhere.  She just heard of Bitcoin like 1 Year ago and now she's got her ass sitting in some secret office and she is getting ready to fire any workers with life left in them.... you know what I saying.. you know..
