- jariel 7y agoNo, you're making the bold claims, it's your job to demonstrate how cryptos have been materially valuable for and society or organization. Take some time to do it, because you might come to realize how fundamentally unpragmatic cryptos are. Also, you might discover that there are some existentially wrong assumptions regarding crypto that make it all moot: there is no such thing as a 'trustless decentralized currency' or store of value because currencies are inherently a form of the social contract. Crypto advocates, it seems, don't even know what a currency even is. There will be a place for digital currency but it will be much as you see it today, blockchain in currency and everything else will probably fade away. Cryptos are a neat idea and a meme, an intellectual fashion, like Uggs or Emo.

That's a good observation, thank you.
