ARE THERE ACTUAL USE CASES FOR CRYPTO?

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Crypto has faced plenty of criticism, but the field holds innovative potential. Some notable achievements include: stablecoins providing stable value storage for people in hyperinflation, decentralized fundraising offering direct ownership stakes, Arweave enabling permanent file storage on the public internet, The Graph providing data query services with cryptographic verifiability, and Filecoin offering a decentralized file-storage service. These developments are just some of the use cases we’ve seen addressed so far in the early stages of this space.
