Yup -- besides printing dollars by the Trillions, weaponizing the dollar will have "blowback", e.g.:

You should give crypto a try. I turned $1k into $3.4k in the first two months of 2020. Paid the taxes and used the funds elsewhere since but, as soon as I get some spare cash, I'm doing that again.

My strategy:

Place a non-expriring buy order on the Litecoin book for 20% under market.

Wait.

Order executes. Place a non-expiring sell order for 20% over market.

Wait.

Repeat.

It's the wild West, man. Volatility is exploitable to the max.

If interested, even though I hate Coinbase, they've bought their best competitors and there really isn't a good alternative. Yet.

Oh and, uh, put your ethics in pocket. This is just a game.

I mean, just as a hobby, give it a shot. Don't put all your apples in there but, check it out. Regulators aren't sure what to do yet, so whales are just manipulating the market to death and leaving wakes for us to ride.

Mine didn’t get stollen, I just had to pull it out before I lost it all. I thought I was an investment guru. Then the administration changed.

I might have to vote for Willie Nelson again

, if someone worthy doesn’t step up.

And, my mom also said, "You don't have to sell at the Top, just anytime before the Crash".
