> Of course there are indeed serious hackers doing game-changing work in the blockchain space and I believe blockchain does have a future, but right now it's almost impossible to hear the signal from the noise.

100%, seeing people who just learned the word blockchain explain to me how I can make 100x my money on crypto is pretty annoying.

My recommendation would be to stick to github, the technical parts of bitcointalk.org and whitepapers at most. Those tend to have better signal to noise ratios.
