if you believe that the world will become more and more digitalized (AR and VR, stuff like the metaverse), bitcoin-like blockchains absolutely matters.
If you believe Saudi arabia is lying for decades about its oil stock and the EROI of gas and oil will continue to climb as fast in the next decade, stiffling production, bitcoin doesn't matter.
The thing is, in the first case, i'll be employable at amazing rates, so cryptocoins as a monetary value, i don't really care. I like the idea of rock climbing and sailing with AR tools, but let's be honest, my pastimes do not involve digital assets (i do play some 4x games, but rarely more than two hours a week), only my work does, and i thus will only care for bitcoins if my work demands it. If you play games like MTG and other TCGs, maybe this can be of interest?
In the second case, it really doesn't matter in the end, but i feel like being able to write C for a microcontroller will be more usefull than being able to write Solidity code. And tbh, i wrote a smart contract, it's just not that interesting. My dad's chicken coop door automation however, was usefull and interesting.
