It is hard to read this list objectively and not conclude immediately that while "limited use" "don't scale" "slow" and "privacy issues" are hypothetically solvable(?),

the divergence between investment and expectation and reality is exactly as great as critics assert,

and that it is indeed entirely the energy and momentum of greed and grift that keeps this from collapsing back to its natural state,

one I was close to prior to the grift, when the technological challenges and approaches were collectively known as "the decentralized internet" and there was not dirty, funny, fake, and stolen money fueling a narcissistic crime carnival.
