I feel crypto and web3 is simply a way of decentralizing computation by tying an incentive mechanism to it that has been discredited by people who barely understand it/benefit from discrediting it. Furthermore, I believe that anyone who dismisses it as a get-rich-quick scheme is blind to this utility becuse of their inability to think outside of the hive-mind, doing actual crypto protocols a disservice by conflating them with blatant scam projects, reacting to a paradigm-shifting technology being co-opted by degenerate gamblers.
