Isn't that like asking "With all the failures in cryptocurrencies, do you all think they serve a purpose at all?" Well, obviously a senior editor for Bitcoin.com would say they do serve a purpose. But obviously economists also serve some purpose as otherwise why would Bitcoin.com authors refer to some of them favorably? As examples: "Austrian School Economists were Bitcoiners, They Just Didn’t Know It Yet" - https://news.bitcoin.com/austrian-school-economists-bitcoin/ https://news.bitcoin.com/austrian-school-economists-bitcoin/ "From Skeptic to Evangelist: Economist Jeffrey Tucker on the Bits of Freedom" - https://news.bitcoin.com/skeptic-evangelist-economist-jeffrey-tucker-bits-freedom/ https://news.bitcoin.com/skeptic-evangelist-economist-jeffre... "Against the Luddite Mentality: An Ode to Technology and Capitalism" - https://news.bitcoin.com/luddite-mentality-ode-technology-capitalism/ https://news.bitcoin.com/luddite-mentality-ode-technology-ca... contains "In a brilliant essay by Austrian economist Ludwig Von Mises ... expertly identified the consequences of socialism". If you really think they serve no purpose, stop using them to support your arguments. Otherwise you're just being snide.
