There's probably some selection bias at play there. The last time I used crypto for anything but hodling was to buy the starting seeds for the cannabis company I co-founded. I felt so much like a cyberpunk character! Stories about use cases for crypto do sound unusually romantic or risky, but that's probably because sectors underserved by the banking system tend to be viewed as romantic or risky.
