I believe in Bitcoin only.

The people that have been around for almost a decade have treated Bitcoin as a hedge against Fiat currency inflation. Similar to how people treat gold. I am one of these people that believe in the 21,000,000 solutions as something that is nuclear chemistry proof and rare.

Outside of that is a joke.

dApps unused, copypasting bitcoin (or various alt coins), then promoting it as a world changing idea. Various centralized currencies which defeat the entire purpose.

I imagine things like Tether will be the future allowing money to be moved cheaply. As I develop my own coin, I choose to tie it to a very popular investment rather than produce yet another silly 'rare' number.

CryptoCURRENCY needs to move things that are hard to move, cheaply. Crypto that stores and manages data seems like a foolish application due to the enormous expense, unreliable txn times, and unneeded verification.
