I wish that were true. But sadly I think crypto's gravitational pull has yanked in plenty of folks that could have accomplished great things (for themselves or others).

The potent mix of greed, exclusivity, and novelty applied at the right time someone's life can ruin just about anyone.

On other hand we might have more gig economy companies... Making everything worse on average...
