If this trend continues, one day they'll pay me to store my data on their service. Imagine being paid to generate random hashes and store them on the internet. ;)
Presumably that's a clever joke about cryptocurrencies. It took me a while to convince myself that the analogy made sense, and I'm not sure how much I appreciate it, but I suppose that slow confirmation times and questionable value are to be expected when dealing with cryptocurrencies.
Slow confirmation times aren't really a thing anymore - ETH transactions confirm in about 15 seconds for me, although it's expensive for small to medium amounts (~$8 to send eethereum, ~$25 to send ERC20 tokens, ~$80 to do a Uniswap swap).
