Article i've gone and written about why people buy useless cryptocurrencies
I made this!
Heard of Bitcoin, yeah?
But did you know there are also ones called Jesus Coin, Fuck Trump Coin, Penis & Cthulhu Offerings?
They're completely useless, and yet people still buy them...WHY!?

Do some people collect them
purely in a collecting way, and want to have some of every one?
Also, if I wanted to have a play with how they work, then I'd probably go for Dogecoin over Bitcoin, as the wallet seems more fun, and I'd have no intention of making any money in the first place.

Same reason people bet on the 100/1 shot on the National
Initial investment is on the order of beer tokens and well within the price that people might pay for a bit of fun, with an outside chance of a big payoff.
