> Cryptocurrencies also aren't really finished yet

It’s been 14 years. When will they be “finished”? What does that look like? What are the goals?

It seems to me like the original goals failed (take over the world, everyone use Bitcoin like cash) and so the goalpost moving began (sidechains, PoW “soon”, NFTs, etc).

I’ve seen nothing of value produced out of 14 years if hype. Only wasted resources and what seems to be an accidental Ponzi scheme.
