I think he might be referring to the rapid rise for tech stocks during that time that were way over valued. Just like snapchat today. Not all alt-coins will survive many of these ICOs will burn people.
Bitcoin, and a few others maybe not so much, but geez! There are like a thousand alt-coins out there! Good for speculating but that's all IMHO.

Nicely put. Yep, I agree with your interpretation Alex

The same feel as the time around 95 ish to 97 before the masses heard of the internet. The penny stocks going to 100's. I was talking to some engineering students a week ago about the blockchain. They're reply was....... "blockchain"? perhaps I'm wrong, but sure feels the same.

Still trying to figure out WHERE TO BUY BitCoin? Anyone have a reputable source? Please help

Coinbase is good.

Have been trying to register on Coinbase for over a week now. At one point, after registering my email & bank details, it asked that I provide verification of my ID. The choices were: Webcam, iPhone, & scan from my PC. Since I don't use a "Spyphone" I opted for the upload. All went well. Got an email saying now I can buy/sell. Went to the site and AGAIN it says I need to verify my photo ID. Only TWO choices now: Webcam of iPhone. Tried the webcam 4 times but it wouldn't verify. (Pretty damn hard to hold a drivers license steady enough for a clear snap I guess...) Emailed "support" to ask "what now?" Still no word back. Crappily designed platform in IMHO! Don't hold yer breath for "Support".

I uploaded my DL and a bill...worked. Its a great site, fast, secure, provides ETH, BTC and LTC

I have heard of people complaining about coinbase, but you have had great success? anyone else want to chime in?
