Crypto is problematic for many reasons.
you probably invested in it and lost a bunch of money. people who blindly and universally hate crypto as a whole usually got fucked over in a scam or in the markets
I'm smart enough to not "invest" in something that has no real world value and that isn't protected under law.
Crypto tends to be pump and run and I don't trust it worth a hoot
have fun playing by the rules of the system that hates you and your privacy
also monero is fairly stable price wise
Besides the power which crypto helps with because it absorbs stranded power or gives a customer for steady income to a power company that can help build more infrastructure. What else is a problem with crypto?
