Ask Fear & Greed: Why would anyone invest in crypto?

Listener James asks: I don't think I've actually heard a clear case for why anyone would want to invest in cryptocurrency (other than 'number go up'). Perhaps you could talk about some of these (eg Bitcoin re potential alternative to grow into Gold's market capitalisation and/or to become another global reserve currency)? And the dangers of memecoins (Doge included, sorry Elon). Join Sean Aylmer & Michael Thompson as they answer listener questions.
