What would you value a technology that aims to separate money and state? Does it have no value?

It has practical value once it's crashed and a real, stable monetary value can be established. A currency you shouldn't be spending because it can double in value in the next week is not a practically valuable currency. There are great ideas in blockchains and the whole decentralized financial system, but the current situation is not practical. It's useful only for its speculative qualities.
