So true, I've been burned and lost plenty of money in the crypto game, all part of the learning curve! It's like paying for a course you spent money to learn and know better and now you can go out and apply what you've learned to make money.
As my mom would say "Hulle wat nie hoor nie, moet voel"
I'm all for regulation in the ICO market but I think regulation in general should come later, we're still all figuring out what to do with this tech and we don't want to pigoen hole it or limit its reach because some people lost money, thats the cost of innovation.
I hear you about the regulation and I agree. I don't want everything locked down, but some form of protection would prevent Crypto in general from getting a bad rep and losing investment.
Oh for sure, if we are going to get mass adoption from the man on the street putting his hard earned cash into crypto there will need to be safety nets in place this could be regulation or a trustless environment like ontology is proposing. Im for anything that helps push us forward and get us off suckling the teet of central banks. I'm gatvol of FNB already
