> If I'd make a list of 100 questions regarding crypto, an exam so to speak, I am reasonably sure that this silent majority can't even answer 5% of the questions.

Reading the comments here, most of the criticism seems to imply that the technology has stopped at Bitcoin and that no other breakthrough has come after. “It consumes too much energy”, “it’s too slow”, “it takes too much space”, “the fees are too high”.
