We have people saying that unfinished toy projects on GitHub are going to revolutionize entire industries on the basis of one contrived demo. We have other people calling for air strikes on data centers and nuclear war to stop... text generators.
What's wrong with people?
The internet was a hype wave too. Remember the dotcom bubble? And then also remember how eventually the internet actually did revolutionize communication, business and entertainment?
Yes, there's hype. There's also a tangible sense that we're at this 'internet circa 1995' moment. I feel like the hype is warranted.
There's far more here than cryptocurrency.

This is not the nothingburger of crypto
But yea, I’m seriously concerned about the hype and the stupid things people immediately try to do with it. About others safety and intentions.
“I’ll just hook it up to my credit card and put it on the Internet…”
Boredom?
