The "dismissive" tone is not because we believe that technology advancement is impossible.
It is because we have been hearing for over a decade about how crypto is going to deliver massive value "in the future".
There is only so much time people will be willing to listen to vague promises of future innovation before they take a look at the actual technology of today and realize that most if not all of it is of little value other than gambling.
My advice to anyone that actually wants to make real products or advancements in identity would be to avoid crypto. Build the product on top of a generic store layer. It will be obvious to anyone with software expertise that Blockchain could be interested in that storage layer of the product would benefit from it.
