I think many cryptocurrencies are useless and driven purely by marketing and speculation and most tokens are unregulated securities. Bitcoin is someone's attempt at inventing an "ideal" currency and it is being bootstrapped into value and existence. How else could it work? Maybe it will fail, maybe not.

You never explained why and I am honestly interested in your reasoning here. Are you implying BTC can't scale? It seems like two contradicting thoughts - if it is used, then it becomes less valuable.
