Walk into my cigar lounge.
Two gentlemen that stop in every year, maybe once or twice a year, see me and walk over to shake my hand.
We exchange greetings. After that, a pretty damn interesting conversation ensues.
I say, what is your opinion on cryptocurrency? Is it a scam?
They look at each other then to me. One guy says yes.
He then proceeds to tell me that the government already has plans in the works to take it over completely.
He says there will come a time when the government will offer it's own cryptocurrency. It will then eliminate all others and offer existing holders pennies in the dollar for the crypto assets they're already holding.
Here was the shocking part which I will quote verbatim:
"When you see Bitcoin lose %15 of it's total value in a single day, get the fukk out immediately. That's the signal it's in crisis. The real top money guys get their information one week before the public does."
"People who stay in are going to lose everything."
At this point someone else asks him, Bitcoin is a scam?
"Yes. It's a pyramid scheme."
Make of it what you will. I'm only reporting what was told me.
