Sucks to say, but almost everyone outside of our small bubble of ideologues thinks "crypto = scams". Trump only makes it worse. I do not see that sentiment shifting anytime soon. Fighting it is like trying to fight gravity. FC and most projects being built here are early enough that they can still avoid this fate.

I would add to this that it mostly is scams. Even on fc, the level of acceptance around doing grifty things as long as you are moving volume is not great. Vast majority of people in crypto see it primarily as a way of acquiring wealth and power, and don’t mind it being at the expense of others. Not fair to expect people to look past that for the tech

Yeah I agree. I’ve been focusing more on the immutable encapsulation of ideas/value, staying away from “crypto” People are a lot more open to it when they’re brought in from a source/validation angle than a financialized angle

The only way for us is to keep building valuable & moral-based (ie attached to decentralization & transparency) products. That's the only way we can prove them wrong long term.

yes and no - in the US sentiment is definitely weighted towards scam in the general public but you head outside of the US - especially to developing countries and this is far from the sentiment they have

In focused on building a product/business with crypto in it. Not a crypto business/product. You wouldn’t shout from the roofs that you use email marketing. Perhaps I am a grumpy old git though
