"cryptocurrencies are revolutionary" is a statement that needs proof, not blind belief.
I agree, and that's very much why I remain interested to see what comes of it.
If it's going to move forward it has to shake the sleazy image with all the scams, pump and dumps, Ponzi-schemes and market manipulation.
There’s a reason our current financial infrastructure is still being run on cobol: if it only took 10 years to build it would have been updated already.

Things take time, 10 years is not a long time, however I agree with the overall sentiment about web3 and crypto in general in this thread.
Cryptocurrency is less a currency and more another financial investment vehicle for people that are tech savvy enough to get into the game. Put in another way: it’s primarily being used to make money, not trade it for goods/services. Maybe one day it will be used truly as a currency, but txn fees are too high and “HODL”ing makes the person money so they’d rather not trade it.
