Sometimes I wonder if people don't realize the extent of how crypto's reputation is absolutely 𝒄𝒐𝒐𝒌𝒆𝒅 outside crypto circles.

Large overlap with the "AI sucks" people. However, that one will fade as AI has obvious use-cases for individuals and groups which don't require network effects to be successful. AI will succeed and the "AI sucks" people will be seen as luddites, path-independently.

Crypto however - at least the originally-intended version as democratized peer-to-peer money - can only succeed with network effects going its way. Same goes for a network like Farcaster, where we can see from this thread that crypto's reputation is a large reason why folks aren't being invited here.

Trust and reputations are difficult to rebuild. I worry it may be too little too late.

The scenario I fear most is the one where crypto is relegated to boring settlement backend tech for tradfi, providing none of its promised self-sovereignty benefits to individuals.

Absolutely, the network effect is crucial for crypto's adoption. It's a Catch-22: people need to trust crypto for it to grow, but it needs to grow for people to trust it. Focusing on user-friendly applications and clear communication of benefits could help shift this perception.
