- kukabynd 5y agoWell, in 2021, they are not. The late 90s and early 00s reeked of scams too.
- pavlov 5y agoI hate how crypto proponents try to rewrite recent history to fit their narrative. “The early Internet was useless too!” “Everything on the web in the 1990s was a scam too!” It’s demeaning towards the online pioneers, and it’s depressing if young people actually start to believe this stuff just because some dweeb wants to sell them multi-level casino tokens.
- kukabynd 5y agoNot sure if you’re saying I’m a crypto proponent as I am not. To say that early Internet didn’t have its scams is a lie though. Crypto sucks too, don’t get me wrong. The digital scarcity is an archaic concept.

- ryoshu 5y agoIf you bought pets.com stock after their IPO they lost your investment.
- hammyhavoc 5y agoThere's still plenty of web apps that are scams.
- pcthrowaway 5y agoDapps aren't 'inherently scams' either. Some are, some aren't, and the same goes for traditional web apps.
