It really is a huge bummer that the most important new technologies of this era have such a film of slime on them. Crypto, AI, whatever comes next, it's just no longer an era in which we can expect innovation to make our lives better. It enables grifters and scammers more than anyone else.

Like I say, the tech is cool but they are doomed to fail (partially because of grift) [although in context of crypto stablecoins/gold (paxos) is the one thing I liked and it did go great for me in terms of gold]

I hope it doesn't count as promotion but I had literally written a blog post about it and made an account literally named justforhn on mataroa when someone was discussing crypto with me in here or something

https://justforhn.mataroa.blog/blog/most-crypto-is-doomed-to...

Maybe its time for me to write part II: Most AI is doomed to fall, the tech is cool though.

I guess I can write it but I already write like this in HN. The procastination of writing specifically in a blog is something which hits me.

Is it just me or is it someone else too? Because on HN I can literally write like novels (or I may have genuinely written enough characters of a novel here, I might have to test it or something lol, got a cool idea right now to measure how many novels a person has written from just their username, time to code it)

Yes, grifters latching onto the newest technology to sell snake oil is a brand new phenomenon and definitely not literally a fundamental part of new technology.
