Are u in it for the technology or are u in it to take money from these xoolos who are swearing up and down they see a new paradigm in something they have no clue about?
They are mutually inclusive, there is no doubt that the technology will become a game changer and with that I mean third generation blockchains.
Third world countries that are largely unbanked with corrupt governments will benefit the most from decentralisation and the paradigm shift to "code" becoming law.
This is what cardano is trying to do, it already signed a deal with the Ethiopian government to sign up 5 million of its citizens to it.
Decentralised finance, lending, governance, identity management, resource management, voting etc can all be achieved, essentially it will strip power from the corrupt elite to the people, it's not something they can shutdown.
Right now hormuud could decide to shut my bank account in Somalia, take all my funds and there is nothing I can do about it, they could go out of business tomorrow and it's the same story.
Europe is no different, I can't send money to a cousin in Russia without paying insane remittance fees, all these problems and ineffiencies are easily solved with this tech.
It's still early days like the dotcom bubble, only a handful of these projects will survive and thrive the majority will go bust, hence the crazy speculations that you see.
Those in IT especially Network, Security and DevOps will easily understand how it's a game changer because they understand the TECH and architecture, those that are not in this field, it's more difficult
