    You think that there are only two possible uses for these things, and if I’m not interested in one of them I must therefore be using it for the other? Pretty weak logic.

      You keep saying there are lots of uses, but you haven’t listed a single one

      I don’t want you to feel bad for being a fan of crypto, but passionately (and incorrectly) defending it just makes you seem like a shill (or worse, a fool)

        Heh. I bet if I had been suggesting particular uses you’d be calling me a shill for those particular uses. “Shill” is such a lazy accusation to throw about, you can sling it at anyone who’s interested in anything.

        How about ENS? It’s a decentralized version of the Domain Name System.

          LOL does anyone use it? Nope. Not a single person. Web3 is code-word for “I own an NFT Monkey and I am an idiot.”

            Wow, big surprise. Insult me, demand I provide a use, then immediately claim that use isn’t valid and throw more insults. It’s almost like it’s not worth engaging with you.

            How about Gnosis? It’s a prediction market.

              Mate, no one outside of you little puddles of morons use web3. This is what I do for a living – I engineer web systems. No one – not once — has EVER – asked to setup web3 ANYTHING ever.

              This gnosis shit is just more dumbass crypto bullshit. I don’t even know what it does after reading the entire first page. Is this some smart-contract nonsense? This just feels like another dumb pointless exercise in fleecing bag-holders.

              It’s as uninteresting as it is ineffective at doing anything useful.

              Go sell your monkey before that collapses next.

                Yup, more insults, and rejection of another example. You even explicitly state you don’t know what the example is, you’re just convinced it’s useless because it involves cryptocurrency. Nicely circular reasoning.

                How about Golem? It’s a decentralized cloud computing marketplace. And I should note preemptively, just because you don’t use it doesn’t mean nobody does.

                  You know how I can tell no one uses Golem? Because there’s not a hosting platform on the planet that doesn’t brag about what brands use their networks.

                  Lets see who’s being pimped… it must be somewhere…

                    Ah, so now the absence of shilling is the problem? What a wonderful catch-22 you’ve got there.

                    How about Filecoin, a decentralized cloud storage system to go with Golem’s cloud computing? I can keep on listing non-currency uses for blockchains for quite a while, you know.
