  • I’ve been quietly mining crypto using Nicehash for a few years now (electricity is cheap in my region, and we’re in a winter country, so it helps heat the house).

    It’s a fun hobby, but I never considered it a serious investment vehicle, that’s what my index funds are for.

    It’s great to see all the enthusiasm behind cryptocurrencies, but I think most people participating (me included) are more interested in the faucet of free money than the underlying technology. Anyone that spends any time learning about the tech quickly realizes that the Bitcoin project is a hot mess and the only thing it has going for it is name recognition. I don’t know when the bubble will pop, but when it does it won’t be pretty.
