Decentralized systems, peer to peer, Blockchain, smart contracts, are all important technologies with real use cases. It is not accurate to refer to any of them as simply "crypto" especially in this context.

    So you’re happy to continue forever with the system we have now - governments printing with no consequence?

      No, but I'm not going to invest in a bunch of grifters and con artists holding up a technically bad solution because they want money and power.

        Commercial banks make up most central banks, and if you believe commercial banks aren't grifters or con artists, you've obviously never heard of LIBOR for starters. As for bad solutions, I'll give you incorrect economic forecasts on inflation and using interest rates as a lever.
