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.
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.
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".
How? I lived through that (perhaps you did as well) but I do not see it like that at all. Please elaborate.

Nicely put. Yep, I agree with your interpretation Alex
