Sure, you do for some things, as most people do. And many people find a lot of value in no middleman for other things. This is not contradictory.

The only transactions where a middle man are a problem for me is the government and taxes. I would like to be able to give someone money without reporting it to the IRS. I would like to be able to buy weed in the mail, but the government doesn't allow that. Crypto doesn't stop laws from existing.
People love to bring up Venezuela, but what happens when that government finds out someone has bought a house with crypto?
