History repeating right before

History repeating right before your very eyes.

Tulip Craze of 1620's, The South Sea Bubble of the 1700's, The Dot Com bust of the late 1990's, The Sub-Prime crisis of 2008 and now the double combination of Cryto and AI mass-hysteria. This time, it may be the worst. Too many would-be billionaires have pouted everything they have into this bubble now.

From Soaring 2600% to Losing 86%: The Collapse of Crypto's Hottest Trade
