The fact that McKenzie has an econimics degree AND took Gary Gensler's crypto course might not make him a crypto expert -- but it probably makes him far more knowledgable about the scope of the crypto scam than the millions of people who invested their money in bogus "currencies" while knowing NOTHING about crypto. Everything he said make perfect sense.
How would anyone know if it makes total sense...Do any you have a economics degree? If not according to this logic then you would have no idea if he makes sense or not
@@maddihall302 You don't have to have a degree to spot when something does not make sense. All this guy was pointing out is that if he has an education relating to economics and took a course on blockchain and crypto, he's done more work understanding the subject than the vast majority of people promoting it and investing in it have done so it makes no sense to try and attack his credentials as not being enough. He's got more credentials than the average crypto shill.
I'd like to see an investigation into celebrities like Kevin Hart who promote online gambling sites. I'd like to see how much the average customer loses, how many chronic hardcore gambling addicts use the sites and how many underage kids are able to gain access.
If it was reliable and stable people wouldn't buy the stuff - they only buy it in hopes that the price goes up and they can make a profit. It's not and never has been a currency, so it doesn't try and act like one.
I have several friends that jumped in on the crypto craze. When they asked me if I was going to invest I said "No and anyone that does is a damned fool" I said " jumping in on a new unregulated, unproven market, is reckless". I will admit, I dont really understand how crypto works, and nor do I care, but I am thankful I had the common sense to stay out of it.

FTX acted like a traditional bank not a blockchain company. The defrauding of the innocent people involved has nothing to do with actual blockchain technology. Ben knows jack crap about what he's attempting to use as a vehicle to stay relevant. I honestly have never even heard of the fellow.
He is right that blockchain is not a necessary component to cyrpto. Blockchain is what is wanted for surveillance and tracking. People should have privacy concerns.
