It is inherently less useful than cash and basic electronic monetary transactions.

Progress is measured by what something does rather than why it could do.

Much of historical research was seemingly useless for a very long time until some progress in unrelated fields enabled them to suddenly become very useful. I prefer to be open minded about technology, not tying it to the way its used by the current time and political system we are living in

So far, crypto is a massively wasteful endeavor. It wastes extreme amounts of power while also hoarding computer hardware.

It’s a speculative asset which cannot be used for as money. It only has value as long as hype exists.
