There are many crypto currencies but only one bitcoin!

Art is my best analogy to crypto.

Exactly. I'm currently getting downvoted elsewhere for comparing crypto-bros to art enthusiasts.

Are some crypto technologies cool and useful? Sure. Are some artworks nice to look at and/or thought provoking? Absolutely.

But some are just hyped by people who are all-in on it, without any actual merit. And convincing someone otherwise is like convincing a devout religious person that there's no god. No amount of convincing is going to change their mind because they're all-in.
