There was a lot of noise coming from the people trying to get rich quick. We are all tired of that.

But there is real utility. You can do a lot of the positive things you mentioned with crypto. Admittedly it is still super hard and there are big problems with scalability.

But there are serious people working on those problems.

My comment is pointing out that many anti-crypto comments here are thinly veiled jealousy.

Personally, I don't believe sour grapes accounts for the majority of cryptocurrency skeptics; for the most part, they've been fairly consistent before and after the boom. Of course, at the end of the day, it's not really that important.
