Blockchain is a technology in search of a problem.

Maybe as a storage of wealth it produces fewer emissions than mining gold but it's not the solution to the money problem.

Why it's still no 1 cryptocurrency? First mover advantage, a few die hard believers, many speculators and lots of FOMO.

Even I am reluctant to sell my 0.01 share of a bitcoin. What if...

When a much better solution comes people will sell it but for now the fiat-alternative market is too crowded with not much differentiation - to my best knowledge.
