But feel free to prove me wrong: how many of the thousands of different tokens that were created in the past years have actually solved a real problem?
Too many for me to sit here and name to be honest. When the Bitcoin narrative pivoted from being a transfer of value to a store of value many other coins and tokens were necessary for businesses to continue operating their models based on low cost transfers without crippling the user experience. You may not like the way many users chose to solve the problem that Bitcoin’s pivot from it’s originally stated purpose created, but their existence can’t be denied or written off as only to enrich themselves. Some projects that stayed and tried to innovate in order to continue functioning on Bitcoin’s blockchain have even been criticized for the shortfalls that continuing to use BTC instead of a lower cost altcoin have created.
As for the actual topic of the thread, I think this was started 4 days late.
