Actually Bianco's point is very good...2008-9 was called a housing crisis when it was a banking leverage crisis...so this isn't a tech crypto speculation as much as bond speculation...that is unwinding hard

@KrishnaMemani I agree … but substitute the bond market for Crypto. The bond market was the most speculative asset (thanks to years of central bank printing) and now it is unwinding hard.
