Been around this forum probably since it's inception and have noticed the same in regards to bitcoin. I mean the parent poster is saying there is no use for a technology that's been around for 12 years and underpins ~$1T of value. Reminds me of this quote copied from internet:

First they ignore you,

then they laugh at you,

then they fight you,

... and then they buy bitcoin

Also noticed the same in regards to kubernetes, only in the last six months has it become "acceptable", and yet it is everywhere and used for everything. Just plain ignorance. But, as the above quote tries to show, lightly, eventually Bitcoin wins.
