What does a brokerage/exchange going public have to do with the top of crypto currencies????

Crypto is here to stay. There's plenty of exciting projects like filecoin for decentralized storage, cardano for 3rd gen smart contracts, and more exciting projects that are coming online.

I hate when people treat cryptocurrencies and stocks as just something you buy and sell.

There's actually a vast amount of people and effort underneath blockchain projects that are trying to solve very hard problems. Just as stocks are an actual part of a company where people work hard to solve problems and create value in the economy.
