I think $HMSTR is a great example of a successful experiment with the masses! Spending six months clicking on a hamster for $10 is a truly unique experience. The experiment was a success on all fronts: the idea, the name, the marketing and the advertising campaign are all top notch!
Do you think people won't participate in such projects anymore? Of course they will!
The crypto community, and not only it, is full of those who don't want to understand financial markets, but prefer to spend time waiting for easy money and changes in life.
The market would be boring without such people!
