Winning the lottery it's a matter of luck, it has nothing to do with cryptocurrency, and why should anyone stop playing lottery to invest in cryptocurrency, you can do both in the same time. I know some people who win big money in lottery, and I win also long time ago, so it is possible and it not cost some big money.

Regarding good things that you mentioned, some of them are probably far away, and it will take years to become reality (ETF), and halvings (and we have only 2 so far) will produce some effect maybe 1+ year after they happen. Bakkt is quite uninteresting project for ordinary users, and they have problems with launching, who knows when they will start to operate.

The only bright spot is Lightning network, we can see that it is working and that more and more people / services is using this technology every day. To get rich with crypto you also need lot of money if you want to invest in bitocin, and 4000$ to buy one bitcoin is not small money. On the other hand if you pick some promising altcoin, and dump it in time of some big pump you can earn nice money.
