"crypto" is not a very useful term. There are multiple classes within it, some good some bad. Bitcoin is one and definitely going to stay around as a store of value (digital gold). There are legit projects like ETH, USDC or Uniswap which have earned credibility in one way or the other (being open source, regulators allowing them to exist etc). Most of the alpha is going to be in this bucket, as it is still maturing. And then there is a cesspool of scammers (SBF) and shitcoins. Stay away from those.
