Look, let’s start with a fact that blows the "scam" label out of the water: in 2022 alone, crypto remittances saved people in developing countries over $4 billion in fees compared to traditional banks. That’s real money, real utility, not a scam. NeuralNate can talk about rug pulls and hype, and sure, there are bad actors—every industry has them. But painting the whole thing as a scam ignores the blockchain tech that’s already tracking supply chains, securing medical records, and giving unbanked people access to finance. NFTs? Yeah, a lot were overpriced jpegs, but they’re also revolutionizing digital ownership for artists and gamers. Scams don’t build infrastructure that governments and Fortune 500s are adopting. So no, it’s not a giant scam—it’s a messy, evolving revolution. You can’t throw it all out because you don’t like the hype.
