Are the $ in the account of whoever sold GME at $500 real to them?
Not if they haven't closed the short yet. By the way I didn't say you can't trade a a mania, I said you can't expect it to last forever or that it has fundamental reality to it.

Do you think it's poor people who are buying Bitcoin? It's more like the top 10% are unhappy that the top 1% have it all. But the bottom 90% are still left out.Well
1. Gary Gensler is the SEC chairman nominee under Biden- who used to teach MIT classes regarding crypto.
2. If the USA bans bitcoin, in terms of game theory concept- it will make us noncompetitive against rest of the countries that adopt it.
3. The whole concept of bitcoin is to say enough is enough. The current system is NOT WORKING. Do you see the wealth gap in society? By having a hard money system, it will limit government's power or say have the financial system KEEP governments in CHECK.
It's a way for the poor people to opt out and move into the new system. Obviously it isn't perfect. But the top 1% like Warren Buffett call it rat poison. So there is at least the opportunity. The millenials are also far more likely to adopt a small amount of capital to it vs baby boomers.Do you think it's poor people who are buying Bitcoin?

But my point is that they aren't. Poor people are too busy trying to make ends meet. They cannot put even $500 into BTC, which would be 1% of 1 coin. If you have many coins already owned by corporations or some lucky early investors, then you already have the issue that we have today, that most of the wealth is concentrated by just a fraction of the people on earth. Even if BTC goes to $500,000, it doesn't make poor people any better off, it just makes the already rich that much better off.It's a way for the poor people to opt out and move into the new system.
