Never, actually. Also you are wrong that the only use is crime. There are literally millions of stories in the last 13 years of cryptocurrency that demonstrate this. But of course keep screaming at the sun if you wish.
- imilk 5y agoMillions? I'd struggle to name 3.
- randomhodler84 5y agoI couldn’t name 3 baseball players, but that doesn’t mean none exist. It just means I’m ignorant of baseball.
- ofrzeta 5y agoStill "millions of stories" is quite the exaggeration. Or do you count "someone bought and sold crypto coins" as a story?

- dathinab 5y agoWell, many of the especially relevant stories where still illegal. Sure ethically they where "right" and not illegal from a EU POV, but still illegal in the country they happened. Besides that most other stories are people getting rich by high-risk speculative investments. But the problem with mass investments into high-risk speculative investments is that they tend to create bubbles which can destabilize the economy, so not really that grate either. There are a lot of good use-cases for the technology behind crypto currencies. But much of the current crypto currency landscape is not grate a lot bubbles, a lot pyramid schemes and scams, a lot of things which conflict with money laundering regulations. And many other problems. I'm fully sure that the related technology (blockchain etc.) will have a future, I'm not sure about crypto currencies like we have them now.
