I've definitely seen these sentiments in the crypto space, it's really obvious if you even dip your toes into it that you will see these kinds of opinions and groupings. I also share some of the opinions that you're laying out here.

However, please keep in mind that they are generalizations. There are a ton of people in the space that are simply fascinated by the technology and looking to build something cool, and also people that are simply using crypto as a portion of their portfolio as it's been the highest performing emerging asset of our lifetime. There are also people that are just using cryptos as currency. There's countless reasons for being in the crypto space, and generalizing them to two simple groups is not quite accurate.

I've seen all the sentiments, but hadn't thought it was so divided between the BTC/ETH crowds. It's interesting!

(Of course generalizations are never 100% accurate, but they can highlight a theme which is interesting to observe)
