...NYT...Why were they giving such a glowing (no pun intended!) endorsement of crypto

I don't think they did.

To check my memory, I clicked on to the "Cryptocurrency" keyword to see the crypto-related stories going back. It's mostly reporting news (which is mainly bad) and skepticism.

Is the next crypto narrative is going to be "why didn't the media save us?" I guess it makes about as much sense as all the previous crypto narratives.

"The lamestream media, whom I never listen to, failed to warn me!"

Anyone else remember those folks who suddenly realized climate change was actually happening and immediately started whining about how the media failed to tell them?

People failing to think critically about how media works while simultaneously whining about how the media works will never cease to amuse me. It is almost exactly like taking a bus to the end of the line and then yelling at the driver for taking you there.
