And Slack was originally meant to be an RPG. Point is, this is not a bad thing. As long as Bitcoin and crypto is useful, people will build on it and evolve it, and I for one am excited to see where it goes as more and more people take it seriously.

It is in a sense because it has zero intrinsic value. I'm not a fan of gold because you can't do anything with it, but at least people have valued it for millennia. If tomorrow, the world goes mad and decides that AAPL isn't worth anything and I can buy all the shares for a trivially small price, it's still a company with billions in assets making billions per year. If people wake up tomorrow and realize bitcoin is a slightly less useful version of a first edition Charizard, you're kinda out of luck.
Oh, and it might have systemic security issues that haven't surfaced yet. As it becomes a bigger and bigger target, people might throw more resources at rewriting transactions and DDOSing miners.
