we are early, not a lot of people are actually using crypto for transactions and majority of those who care about crypto are opportunists/gamblers just looking to 10x their portfolio. they care even less about uiux and transaction speed.

tldr; At TOKEN2049, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated that the early days of crypto are over, marking a new phase where the focus should be on usability. Despite high transaction fees and clunky interfaces hindering mainstream adoption, improvements like Ethereum’s scalability updates have reduced fees and waiting times. Buterin emphasized the need for decentralization alongside practicality, suggesting that crypto can offer unique benefits like security and identity protection, even as centralized systems improve.

Mayve not 100% early…, (I mean Bloomberg and othes have shows about crypto), But it is still fairly soon in the process.

His point is clear. Crypto isn’t early if you want to make money from just front running the next Joe Shmoe who hasn’t heard about crypto.
Crypto is now already in the broader public awareness. They don’t want to come because they are apathetic and disinterested, not because they don’t know about it.
Vitalik is right. The crypto got to make itself useful as a payment rail or this industry might be a lot smaller in a few more years

Sure, we’re not where we were 10 years ago, but we’re early compared to people just getting into it 10 years from now!

Vitalik is from early crypto days. Does that also mean his days are over?

It’s over for him in his days as a dev but the start of a brand new journey as leader of the Vitalik Waifu Harem

early or not, now is good time to buy some alts
most of them are all time low or close to it, it will go back up, you can make 2x of your money
I got some matic or pol now and looking into hbar to buy, they both low
The late days obviously. Probably now need to wait 10 years plus for life-changing gains.

After 15 years, we are officially not early. The important question is, do few still understand?

I think this depends on the country too; being from the UK it feels as if both the stock market and crypto are much more widely accepted and discussed within the US, for example. Here? Not many people invest in the stock market and therefore even less into crypto.
