I can go to the corner store and buy $20 scratch offs, a 30 rack, a carton of cigarettes, while simultaneously betting $500 on the Maple Leafs to win from the phone in my pocket.
Yet, I am prohibited from using my own money in investment opportunities bc I'm not "accredited"
My comprehensive analysis of BIP-110:
* Why it's reckless
* Why it's irrational
* Why it's doomed to fail
* My predictions for what will happen
* My recommendations for how to proceed

If coinbase just put their name at the bottom right of the screen for the whole commercial it would have been better. Any negative sentiment was simply because seeing "coinbase" at the end of a karaoke commercial was very, very, unexpected.
Some guy at the gun shop told me XRP is the future and said Bitcoin coming down is "the end of it" and "you can't buy anything with it because it takes a day and a half to clear"
Diff conversation I had about 7-8 months ago: Friend inherited money when his mother died. He told me he wanted a buy gold. I told him, "I've been telling you for years to buy Bitcoin. Take the time to learn about Bitcoin." He said "..doesn't want to learn. You can touch gold.."
Just saw this friend at Christmas and told me he wants to buy Bitcoin when it falls below $40k. The "touch it" conversation happened when I told him to buy Bitcoin at $20k.
