ITT: Critics ;)

I think it's disingenuous to call crypto an investment. It would be nice to see some legislation tame the absolutely insane relationship between crypto and fiat.

I like the idea of bitcoin, but until such time as it stops repeating avoidable mistakes tradfi has solved, I'm out.

Distributed, trustless consensus is a wild idea and I hope it finds root in something practical. Dunno if this is a thought about goal or not though. Seems to me that the current interest is building the next big crypto thing.

Also, isn't the idea of making money off of fiat/crypto exchanges kinda anti-thetical to what the cipherpunks were going for? Bitcoin's relationship to the USD is fairly toxic imo
