It sounds much more like your complaint is about "Capitalism", which is why I think you are actually being a dishonest 3rd Positionist.

do you realize how much of a failure that discussion would be for you considering the infamy of crypto and its rugpull culture?
wonder what you can do with crypto and its extremely unstable prices...
