There is not a goddamn person in this planet using this finance their car or their house that's not a crypto fanatic with no rationality to their finances. That's not a market. A circlejerk of crypto funds trading amongst themselves is not a market. You don't see a single institution, collective, or government actually supporting or putting their money on this with the exception of more speculators. Financial technology is worthless if it's not used for things outside of finance.
