OK....most big-shots are not working in the field.

I'm trying to argue that blockchain/crypto industry is amateur and infant and you think I work in such industry and scam people around. I mean c'mon!

I think you may have misinterpreted my last phrase (it was not an attempt at insulting you or calling you a scammer at all).

I'll rephrase it: "It's almost as if, if one is working in something blockchain-related, one must be a bad professional somehow (or, worse, a scammer)."

I don't disagree that the field is filled with amateurs (and, yes, scammers). It still doesn't imply that there isn't any serious cryptological research being done within the (so-called) field of "blockchain", which was the argument I originally replied to.
