Discussion are commonly emotional, rather then rational - it's freedom, it's getting rid of banks, it's a scam, it's a secret project by the NSA, etc... and it's also politically charged topic, and everyone has an opinion, because a lot of people own crypto currency/mine or at least know someone who has. Its rare to see so many people interested in a given topic.

There are great resources, although the are commonly rather vertical, then horizontal by topic. E.g. there is a lot of great technical information out around Bitcoin, how it works, wiki pages that discuss the code and algorithms in details - really useful stuff, e.g: https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-guide

Its rare though to find a more "cross-disciple" assessment/analysis of crypto currencies (political, economic impcat, society changes,...). If anyone has good resources, please share.
