That is a good point and maybe a lot of the private investors are realizing now that they should gain some more knowledge about cryptocurrency and their purpose. Anyhow, I don/t think speculation is a bad thing it means only that you are willing to take a risk for a possible profit in the future. And the future is always uncertain so in a broader sense speculation is not only restricted to financial markets but to all human decisions. Because you never know for 100% certainty the outcome of any decision you make in life and the same accounts for cryptocurrency.
