Everyone Should be Wary of Crypto Currencies

Do Not Follow Trump's Obsession to Invest in Them

Trump and his companies are going all in on crypto curriencies, including bitcoin. Their decision to do so could easily become a key reason for Trump's ruin. Everyone should be wary of crypto currencies and refrain from following Trump's investment obsession in them.
Cryptos are completely unregulated and some are subject to large swings in value. They are safe until they are not.
This is similar to what happened in the 1929 stock market crash that brought about the Great Depression. Then, people invested into stocks and bet the farm, so-to-speak, as their situations got better and better until everything collapsed. It was only after the crash that various safeguards were put into place to keep ordinary people out of inadvertent trouble.
The present crypto frenzy is sucking up all of the financial oxygen. There is nothing to prevent an unprecedented crash that could lose billions of dollars in value -- and that could wipe out Trump's overextended financial empire, which is already in precarious stability.
Respectfully, I will have no empathy.
