Is cryptocurrency just one piece of the puzzle?

When we look at past technologies, like the internet, it was revolutionary at the time, but it was really just a network of computers connected by cables, sending data to each other.

Decades later, we got browsers, search engines, online shopping, and eventually companies like Amazon. That’s when the internet became something everyone actually used.

What I’m proposing is that crypto hasn’t yet had that next groundbreaking technology built on top of it.
Think about it. Why should the average person want to use crypto in its current state?

Where are the popular dApps? Why would I transfer my money using crypto when my bank already does it instantly and, for me, for free?

Which is why I think crypto needs another technology built together with it.

Who knows, maybe someone figures out how to rent out their PC or GPU in exchange for tokens that can then be used to pay for AI models. Crypto wouldn’t be the product, it would be the thing powering the system in the background.

But even then, I think that would mostly interest people who are already into tech.

What crypto really needs is its own ChatGPT moment. Something so useful that millions of people use it every day without even caring that crypto is running underneath it.

Maybe cryptocurrency isn’t the final product. Maybe it’s just one piece of a much bigger puzzle.
