This article is just a spin of "I don't see how music on the computer is easier than in the radio" or "buying a newspaper will always be easier than reading your news on some weird website". Bitcoin and cryptotech are loaded with geeks, just not the same ones as the author associate with. And cryptotech do a lot of stuff way better than existing tech. You have to be totally blind not to see it, IMO. :D It was the same with "noone will need a personal computer" laughed by older-school engineers, or "The Internet is a funny toy with its funny packet switching, but real business-critical communication needs a reliable networking like a connection-based phone system". Cryptotech (not only blockchain-based) is disruptive, groundbreaking and as transformative as personal computers were. But it took like 30 years to get personal computing to the point where it was obvious. And it won't be much faster this time. There will be blockchains, technologies, standards, businesses going up and down, people getting rich and/or broke, with winners shaping a new world.
