When quoting someone please use the full statement. You've paraphrased and injected your own meaning which is incorrect.

> I've never encouraged people to buy crypto and if someone does [encourage people to buy crypto], they are not as smart as you or they think.

> I personally invest in crypto because fundamentally I believe something deeper that I hope works.

I've implemented my own blockchains, I have produced patents in the space, I have spoken and worked in this space for a significant amount of time.

Pumping and dumping is a get rich scheme which is destroying the perception with very real victims. I feel bad for people young and old that attempt to play in the stock market options space and lose it all because they are gambling thinking they will get rich.

I feel equally for those getting hurt in crypto despite the sad reality that they should have come in with questions not hope of a windfall.

These two things are more alike than different in my opinion
