I'm not familiar with crypocurrency; I have only heard of crypto in negative perspectives. I'd like to see some positive perspectives; because I feel like it.

That its anonymous. Monero is the best for anonimity, but coins such ad Bitcoin aren't anonymous.

The anonymous claim is a misconception I have heard. Interesting to learn.

This is biggest one imo. It only felt anonymous in the early days because authorities didn't have the tools/data to unmask people.

that they're all anonymous, that they all use proof of work, they're all intended to replace fiat, they don't have scaling solutions, that smart contract platforms are intended to run all computations etc

Could you please share a general picture of what you have heard of crypto especially negative?
