I dunno, you're asking crypto to be compared with sectors that actually provide services people need who between them have had a few high-profile flameouts over the course of history. Whereas crypto has had a fairly quick boom-and-bust and the biggest players frequently either go bust or are heavily exposed to those who already have (and are desperate to convince everyone they're not and are actually fine).
I'm not sold on crypto and you'd have a hard time persuading me to change my mind, I'm afraid.
You only have to look at what you’re ignoring in order to hold that view
> actually provide services… need
You’re valuing entertainment at zero (nobody needs that), vice at zero (nobody needs that), financial services at zero, and a perpetual bug bounty at zero, those are the major components of the crypto space
and you simultaneously hold every participant in any of those sectors as both representative of the whole thing, and equally as relevant as the next participant
persuasion is not the word I would go for, the disingenuous nature of that perception is the main observation
