I'm not a crypto skeptic: things like encryption, one-way hashing, etc. are extremely important, fundamental technologies with loads of math and experience behind them. They work, and should be used widely. Crypto-currencies are a totally different story. For one, many of them are scammy rich quick schemes that have used greed to influence the technically unsaavy to corrupt the English language.
