> 4. Buzzword soup

Maybe I'm in too deep but peer-to-peer is a buzzword? I mean person-to-person, without intermediaries. This seems useful and powerful to me (and my politics I suppose).

> 5. no transparency/security using crypto as bulk transport

I don't mean building a social layer on top, I mean building digital infrastructure on top, 'smart contracts' etc.

I still maintain hope for something like this but after watching the gradual but massive increase in the complexity of 'DeFi' (decentrialized finance) in the Ethereum community I don't know where to look and what to work on these days...
