I just looked at coinbase's about page they have 35MM users now. Bitcoin is going through s-curve adoption like the internet. Fools on here look for conspiracy theories because they ignore demand increasing, for whatever reason.

I have a Coinbase account that I haven’t logged in to since 2017. Apart from speculation, there’s simply nothing to do with this stuff. Ethereum has promised “Web 3.0” applications since forever but they don’t even have the bandwidth for a novelty cat picture exchange service.

This was not the case for any early internet service. They were all immediately useful and became part of my life. The only reason I stopped using something (eg Usenet) was that a better replacement became available.
