I don't pretend that at all. Like I've said elsewhere in this thread, "caveat emptor." I am sorry if others have told you that is not the case about crypto. Unfortunately, I cannot do anything about them.

Then we are in full agreement. As I said elsewhere, the average Joe who cannot remember their own passwords should not be using crypto, IMO. With freedom comes the freedom to shoot yourself in the foot, and unless you understand basic digital safety procedures, you are best off not shooting yourself in the foot.
Yes, I agree with you on this.
However this is far from the dominant narrative coming from crypto advocates. That is all I am objecting to.
That’s a selling point advanced by crypto advocates.
Frankly, it’s ok to make that point. What is not ok is pretending that crypto isn’t also a high risk environment full of scams.
