The claim that Bitcoin (or ETH, or lite, or tether, or Doge) will function in any way like a currency in the near or middle future is a meaningless pipe dream with no technical roadmap to meaningful adoption. You can talk about the hypothetical benefits of the chain and the ideological failing of a fiat currency, but none of that maps to the reality of the crypto space right now. You're either a willing con-man or an unwilling mark.

Some people will get fat from crypto. That doesn't change the fact that it is a cesspool.
