off the top of my head: DeFi, NFT's, data storage, services for the bankless, decentralized metaverses, insurance, synthetics, music streaming, video streaming, social networks, DAO's, social money

I think most, if not all, of those things work fine (and arguably better) without using a cryptocurrency.

so you see no value to:

- DeFi

- decentralized data storage.

- a decentralized & censorship resistant video streaming platform.

- Artists getting compensated fairly via NFT's.

- Banking the bankless

- DAO's (btw, how can DAO's work better without being decentralized? hahaha)

- A decentralized and censorship resistant social network

- Sythentics. What is a better solution to tokenizing assets in your opinion?

and on and on..

I see plenty of value in many of those issues. Some appear to be just jargon or beg the question. I see zero evidence that cryptocurrency is necessary or even beneficial in solving any of those problems.
