Not 100%, but just as bad.
I'd say that is wild mix with hard-to-measure ratios of...
* scammers and crooks - who are attracted to crypto like flies on s***.
* the naive marks of scammers - who the scammers (and everyone else) are extracting from
* true believers - who find value in the concepts. They're willing to overlook the s*-show and actually believe in a libertarian pipe-dream of a better future with crypto as money.
* amoral speculators - who could not care less wtf crypto means but just want to dip-and-pull. They're "in it" ONLY insofar as they can convert the funny-money into real-money.
