This is a common play in several industries. Art of Shaving markets itself well to casual people interested in traditional shaving products but they take regular products, mark them up by a lot, rebrand and then upsell. Nobody claims Art of Shaving is the apex of shaving. Best Buy does similar marketing in regard to electronics, but Best Buy certainly isn't the apex of electronics retailers. What makes you think cryptocurrency companies would be any different?

I would say Best Buy is an apex electronics retailer. Why wouldn't you?
Yes, but not the apex of the "electronics industry".
But that's not the industry he said.
