Alas, in the 2+ years since, the vast majority in crypto have pivoted sharply towards full on greed, degeneracy, nihilism, and crime. Of course, there's a small minority that continues working on useful sustainability, and I have the utmost respect for them, but that keeps getting smaller by the day.

Crypto is a natural home for people who are desperate for a better life, and unfortunately the desperate are the most vulnerable to greed and grifters. I don't see why this won't be a persistent theme in crypto indefinitely. However, that doesn't affect my optimism for crypto. We're giving the entire world financial freedom, and no system is perfect. I think this is analogous to how elderly people are more vulnerable to scams. It's a problem, but it's not exactly a bad thing that people are able to live long enough to grow elderly.
