I agree that cryptocurrency (and particularly Bitcoin) has lots of problems today. But it has a lot of potential, like replacing credit cards controlled by two major corporations. Unfortunately, it seems that everyone who works in the space is only focused on making short-term profit, and creating more problems through that.
It had this potential for 10+y. Sometimes it is just time to call something "a loss" and move on... and try to fix what's fixable...?
If we are talking about Bitcoin specifically then I agree completely, I moved on from it years ago because its just badly managed. Its sad that no other crypto project has managed to replace it yet in terms of visibility and usage.
