I will probably trade my karma for this comment, but have you looked into other protocols ? You mention the processing fees and the finality time, I've heard of several projects that are already better than Ethereum on this such as Hedera Hashgraph, Avalanche or Algorand. Saying that "crypto has not lived up to its potential at all" merely 12 years after Satoshi mined the first bitcoin is laughable if anything. It took 15 years of the internet to have Facebook. It took 27 years (!!) of the internet to have something like TikTok. How can you say that crypto will amount to nothing ?

> It took 15 years of the internet to have Facebook. It took 27 years (!!) of the internet to have something like TikTok. That's an amazingly ridiculous statement. There's been bulletin boards and chat on the Internet about as long as it has existed. All manner of utility has existed on the Internet since the beginning. Neither Facebook nor TikTok were required for the Internet to be useful. The best uses for cryptocurrency are speculation and crime. Even the speculation requires some amount of criminality because speculators only get a payout if more rubes "invest".
