Find me an investment strategy that isn't needlessly complicated. Everything you can do in the traditional world you need an army of lawyers to get right.

All you have to do is vet the handful of things you're interested in. I don't know everything about every crypto project out there, and I assume everything is a scam unless something piques my interest and so I dive in depth on it and determine it isn't. Most things that do pique my interest turn out to be scams within. 5 minutes of reading. Sometimes that means I miss out on money, it's a risk assessment.

I'm not invested in maker because it isn't a passive investment. You either buy a stablecoin, no gains on that, or you become a DAO member and have a role to play. But it is a very interesting tool that people can use that works really well. It does what it's designed to do, keep dai correlated highly with the dollar.

Not terribly interested in discussing it further, but a comment I made elsewhere applies, at least:

> They think that the flaws of the incumbent system justify any flaws in the new one, without realizing the burden is on them to prove the new system doesn't posses _all_ of the problems (and more) of the original.

> I think "whataboutism" describes the situation well. See it a lot with the crypto crowd. Clearly a lot of cognitive dissonance going on there.
