Well you have to ignore the total absolutism and extreme rhetoric that is taken from either direction: Those "who totally support it" and think that all crypto projects and its technology will take over the banks, institutions and payment processors and those "who are totally against" it and think it will 100% collapse, go away and the technology won't be used by anyone.

I'm afraid that both of them are setting themselves up to being disappointed.

It’s hard to ignore the absolutist echoes, because the extremes are rewarded so much: The hype train will airdrop you some NFTs, and the haters will upvote one another because being a conservative skeptic is so authoritative.
Yeah like every other technology it will either ultimately prove its worth or fade into obscurity like everything else. I just don't see the point with these extreme viewpoints.
