    This is just gambling, betting that you’ll cash out before everyone else, but after the price has run up.

    Even worse, it is unregulated gambling. In normal gambling there are rules. Yes, the house will always win in the long run as the odds are in their favor, but the game is set up in a transparent way and doesn’t change half way through.

    Also the original idea of cryptocurrency was never speculation and cashing out. But sadly it has turned into that in 99% of the time.
