Are We Underestimating Crypto Like We Did the Internet?

In the late 1990s, many people dismissed the internet as a passing fad. They doubted online shopping and believed traditional business would never change. Today, the internet drives almost every part of our lives. Could blockchain and crypto follow the same path? Yes, scams exist and many projects will fail. But bad actors do not invalidate powerful technology. Instead of asking “Which coin will make me rich?”, focus on projects that solve real problems. History rewards those who learn before the crowd and punishes blind followers. Do you see crypto as just another financial trend, or could blockchain become as transformative as the internet? Share your thoughts below.
