As a rule of thumb, people calling crypto a "space" are trying to hustle you.

huh?

I'm no crypto fanatic, but I call plenty of things a "space". It's basically a synonym for niche?

Glad to hear that. Notice I said

You might as well just say that mentioning crypto at all is a red flag and call it a day.
