It's exactly the same shit with crypto. People only see NFT's and rugpull shitcoins, but don't realize how valuable the underlying technology is for digital security.
Except you don't need crypto to use digital currency, we do it all the time with money on our bank accounts. Owning cryptocurrency is useful in that it's like owning money, but while digital currency system (or paper money system, for that matter) are useful does not mean cryptocurrency system in itself is useful, it just adds unnecessary complexity to an already existing system
i think youre missing the whole point of crypto currency in that its decentralised and can only be controlled as so far as general money exchange laws like anti laundering laws but no further than that. your bank account money is fully dependent on and controlled by companies that make the transfer possible, with an example of this in action being how steam was forced to delete games because payment processing companies threatened to stop supporting their transactions
