Crypto is a ponzi scheme BTW.
Those people are the exit liquidity as Wallstreet sells their dog**** private equity to retail and the auto and home markets implode.
Same thing happened in the gfc, dot Com, Asian financial crisis, 1929 etc.
This time isn't different
You’re right that history rhymes, but it doesn’t repeat on cue. Every cycle has its own drivers. Comparing today’s setup to 1929 or the GFC ignores structural differences: massive liquidity, AI-led productivity gains, reshoring of supply chains, and a U.S. economy that keeps surprising to the upside.
Calling crypto a Ponzi is lazy. Unlike 2000-era dot-coms with no revenue, blockchain infrastructure is being integrated into payments, custody, and settlement. The players aren’t just “retail exit liquidity”—BlackRock, Fidelity, and sovereign wealth funds don’t buy “dog****” to get dumped on.
As for “this time isn’t different”—it actually is. Every major bull run looked unsustainable in the moment. People said the same at S&P 1,500, at 3,000, and at 4,500. Now they’ll say it again at 6,000 on the way to 8,000.
The real risk isn’t that markets collapse tomorrow. The real risk is being too bearish and missing the gains while waiting for the crash that never comes.
When the economy eventually corrects, one thing is certain: United, Delta, and the rest will do what they must to capitalize on it. Wishing you the best on your future returns—cheers!
