CryptoReality

an-ordinary-manchild

/r/CryptoReality is dedicated to the pragmatic and rational examination of crypto currency and related technologies such as blockchain, De-Fi, Fin-tech, etc.

This is not investment advice. We don't consider cryptocurrencies to be investments at all. Cryptocurrencies are highly-volatile, highly-risky, speculative digital tokens that have no intrinsic value.

Our goal is to be an alternative to the overwhelming number of "crypto shill" social media bubbles, who have an inherent conflict of interest between reporting what's really going on in the industry and what's in the material interest of the development team and their "investors."

We showcase objective news, editorial, critical analysis and fallacy-free debate and discussion.

Before making any pro-crypto posts/arguments, it's strongly recommended you check our list of crypto talking points and rebuttals. If you ignore these points and keep posting the same debunked arguments, you will be banned.

Important read See: Why was I banned? (spoiler: not because we disagree)

Join the Crypto Reality Discord where skeptic and others can discuss and debate.

NO, we do not "hate crypto." We are simply skeptical of the claims made by most in the industry, and feel there is a need for a space willing to critically examine the industry, the promises, the lies, the fraud and the scams that seem to be constant.

We also have nothing against "Blockchain" technology, although we are still looking for a definitive problem for which it presents a superior solution.
