And hey, cryptocurrency also has utility outside speculative markets and grifters!

It can be used to move money freely and often times more efficiently, and some of it can be used for private payments, too. Ability to financially support someone anonymously is important for democracy.

It also allows you to get money directly without revealing sensitive payment information or relying on third party with giant fees. This is objectively good!

yup, the buying drugs part is the legit good use of crypto. Always cringe when people acts like that's a negative when saying that's their only use.
