Bitcoin was originally meant to be used as a currency. Ethereum was meant to be the oil that powered the smart contract network. I guess the question is, what matters more: the intent by the creators or what the end users choose to do with it?

I have yet to see any coin be used in a manner that doesn’t devolve to a security. While there were many projects to do other things with crypto - they all still sell tokens on exchanges. I’d find the claim that crypto isn’t meant as a security more convincing if the crypto traded at 0 dollars.
