I think that’s what you’re missing. Crypto is a currency. It is meant to be used in transactions for buying a car or buying a house or buying groceries or buying a pet or buying a computer. It is a currency and is used as such. To be fair, Bitcoin has failed as a currency because it’s traceable, which is bad for a currency, and it can’t do enough transactions per second without extremely high fees. And those two things together have caused it to fail as a currency. Monero, on the other hand, does work as a currency, because it’s not traceable. So no, not satire at all.
