Ask HN: Still “betting” in blockchain technology and crypto space?

Quoting “betting” as I’m not asking about crypto investments but rather if any of you still believe in the current state of the technology and applications. I recently found myself digging a bit deeper into ethereum’s dapps and, at least that’s my feeling, found almost the same exact situation as 2 years ago. Abandoned apps, awful user experiences, unuseful speculative apps(at last for me). Ethereum is still marketed as “a global, open-source platform for decentralized applications.” Yet I have to find any real killer application based on the Ethereum blockchain. The documentation is poor, solidity doesn’t even seem a programming language. Worst of all It’s very difficult to find any piece of criticism around the internet, google only suggests me links of people giving investment insights. I really don’t understand the hype and why people are still reteaining coins of useless blockchains that haven’t changed my life at all(maybe DeFi?). Please tell me, am i wrong? What am i missing? Cause for sure I’m missing something, I’d like to be enlighted, I was a first time enthusiast of blockchain technology.
