Worrying about missing out on 3000% gains is like walking into a casino, watching a roulette wheel and kicking yourself you didn't put $1000 on 00.

There is a difference. When gambling on economic markets, there is no equivalent of 'the house always wins'.

The shovel makers win.

I think Vitalik & co are winning quite handily, actually.

Do you believe they should not be rewarded for their work? Vitalik had 500 000 ETH, and sold 25% at $5. The whole foundation had 12M ether which they used to support close to fifty developers worldwide. This is what crowdfunded innovation looks like.

I don't believe in prescriptivism, the world is chaotic and reward is a fiction. My point is simply that in the context of crypto markets, there most definitely is a house, and they are doing as expected.
