The clever people are the ones that bet against the market while watching the naive investors fill their boots

My last salaried employment was in a prestigious private bank…..we looked long and hard at whether we should embrace cryptocurrency as a client product and it didn’t take many seconds at all to decide we could destroy our reputation overnight by being in that market.

In summary my personal view is that if you have money that you are prepared and can afford to lose if it all goes wrong then go for it. Otherwise steer well,clear!
To be fair, you sound extremely biased against it. Also the fact that it took "seconds" to decide doesn't make it sound like you all made an educated and informed decision.

As with anything, to each their own. Crypto will either be here for the long term or it won't, who knows.
