Yes we see this comment rehashed on every crypto thread on HN, why?

Because it still bears saying, especially given how many people are just looking for greater fools to hold their bag. Inevitably the replies include a barrage of whataboutism centered on “fiat currency” in an attempt to normalize or justify the cryptocurrency shitshow.

[woah]

This story has nothing to do with whether cryptocurrency is a bubble. It’s a simple instance of theft. Sophomoric prognostications on the future value of cryptocurrencies have nothing to add to the conversation about the article. This kind of thing is depressingly common on HN, and I believe the majority of them are written by people who have not read the article. They usually have nothing to do with the content of whichever article triggered them.
