'17 was bad, but it pales in comparison to the sheer scale of degen participation rn. There was still some kind of 'structure' to the scams. Right now it's free for all, much easier to bootstrap liquidity via DEXes, viral marketing through tik tok etc.

I think 17 was more 'scammy' though; the degens now at least don't wholeheartedly think they are investing in the future but instead are just having fun playing hot potato (right?) We've left behind fake LinkedIns and half-baked whitepapers for fully baked memes. Progress

Think it's a lot of the same in a different wrapper. Interacting with smart contracts and self custodying has made it feel more 'legitimate' but I'm fairly certain the $ value lost to scams /rugs is much higher this time around Also a function of the market increasing in size)
