Remember when adding the word blockchain to an Iced Tea company's name caused share prices to jump?
is this real? I can't tell anymore.
I googled it and I wish it wasn’t

This is like my friend who "invested" in Doggy (not Doge) coin "because it was going to explode and become highly valuable" even though it was only worth like .1% of what Doge was worth like two years back..... He's a teacher.
Or my other friend that invested thousands in Etherium like 2 years back, while knowing basically nothing about "The Etherium Network", or anything crypto related. He just knew that he could potentially make money off of it like he could with stocks. I asked him like a year later if he ever made anything off of it and he said "not really", and said he had reinvested the money into other things (I forget which, it wasn't crypto related) 🤣
