The problem is that Ethereum continues to be used almost exclusively for speculation of ethereum, followed by creation of literally hundreds of thousands of ERC20 cryptocurrencies, followed by anonymous lotteries/gambling (and for a brief time NFTs which themselves were a form of speculation, although that's mostly collapsed). At what point will that change? How much more do they have to do before Ethereum is mainly used for real-world applications? Ethereum is a solution shoe-horned into a trustless blockchain to an already solved problem.

While I'd certainly agree that Ethereum has problems, the problems you list aren't Eth problems. They are legal issues in some geographic jurisdiction.

Can you elaborate? Isn't the whole point of Ethereum's creation for practical applications, which they've continued to fail to have adoption for?
