I blame it all on the "crypto market" which is full of non-technical people trying to get rich off things they don't understand. It creates an ecosystem of misinformation and poorly aligned incentives for actually determining which coins have the best tech. The other problem is that coins are tied to (non-democratic, oligarchical) development teams, so there is a lot of guesswork involved in what features will actually be added and which are lofty promises that can't/won't actually be executed.

I wish so many people weren't trying to make money off the technology now while it's obviously not mature enough to supplant actual currency or some other sector (like storage with Sia and Filecoin). It would also be nice if new features/improvements on a coin were implemented by creating a new blockchain rather than be asking the community to fork.
