Crypto is used to scam, it doesn’t mean the technology or the idea is a scam. I find it really ironic how Lemmy seems to hate it so much. I don’t have any investment in it anymore because I don’t like how profit-focused it became but I first got into it for the same reason I’m here on Lemmy, Bitcoin was an open source and federated alternative to money. Anyone could run a node and mine it. No more proprietary apps like PayPal.
While I don’t think we will ever recapture the original spirit the tech had in the early 2010s I do find it quite sad that people think crypto = scam. Is HTTP a scam because scam websites exist? Are phones a scam because scam calls exist? I really wish people would separate the underlying technology (which is actually really cool) and the people using it.
