Yup I completely agree, to me honestly I'm still in need of research in statistical side but I believe Bitcoin has become a complete different category of "asset" now to what we are used to.
But with such excessive growth in this short time, regulations to be put in place and amount of people you see using "borrowed money" to invest; I see as you do where cryptocurrencies comes into play after.
That's the beauty of a decentralised community; hydra effect :)
Is there any cryptocurrencies you would recommend to research into?
