Very much a betrayal. Signal has an image of "for the weak against abuse by the strong". Cryptocurrency is "I'll sell my grandmother and everyone I know for money. HODL YOLO!", which is not exactly compatible.
And it's not just disappointing, it's also dragging the to-the-core corrupt world of these people into Signal.
This is making Signal lose the moral high ground, making it that much easier to drag its name through the mud that is cryptocurrencies.
