All of them, except for blockchain. That one can go die on the trash heap of history.

As long as there are Rust jobs or blockchain related jobs there, you're going to have to cope and wait for a very very long time until that is ever going to 'die on the trash heap of history' to happen.
So why hasn't it died quicker than it should have years ago as many have incorrectly predicted then?
> Blockchain companies are a dime a dozen. They don't all last forever.
And who said that the 'companies' did last forever? Why do you think I said as long as?
I'm just wondering if the whole thing is guaranteed to totally go away 100% and to be absolutely used by no-one since clearly someone also thinks so. That is my question.
As for bitcoin itself, which I assume the latter part of your comment is talking about:
It’s predictable trustless money. It’s not perfect. But where you totally Lose me is:
> it is wasting the world's energy supplies
This is the latest POLITICAL attack vector. When you parrot messages like this, you expose yourself as a political victim that is not educated about the topic. Literal parrot.
If you have an interest beyond being a political foot soldier, do your own OBJECTIVE research. Learn about bitcoin miners using renewables, how much energy the industry actually uses, the carbon footprint of payment networks and fiat etc.
It’s an effective political attack vector because in all likeliness you won’t do your homework. You’ll read my comment, experience cognitive dissonance, judge me as a bitcoin cultist, and move on with your busy life.
I am not a crypto stan but it has at least one usage.
e: Sorry, forgot it was verboten to say anything contrary to the "crypto has no uses whatsoever" line.
