I get where you’re coming from. The space is rough, and a lot of what we see today really does look like speculation loops and noise. But I don’t think crypto failed. I think it’s still in the middle of figuring out its real gravity. Every major technological shift starts this way. The truth is that attention, liquidity & belief are still being shaped. the speculation is the infrastructure. The same mechanisms that look like gambling today are the same ones that will power the next generation of real financial and social systems once they mature. The hard part is staying long enough to see that transition happen.
Sounds like its a solution looking for a problem.
I like self-custody but thats about the most interesting use-case it delivers, everything else seems to revolve around zero-sum games.
Saying we are still early is a meme for the pyramid scheme.
