I got into and out of Bitcoin back in 2010 when I was still in high school. Even then, I thought and still do that crypto as a whole is a complete ponzi scheme with little real world utility.

I feel completely differently about LLMs; I'd say we're closer to 2007 when the first iPhone was released. I believe LLMs will become a part of our day to day lives at a level that crypto never came close to.
