We have our bubble but you are correct. "Blockchain" is a joke in the tech circles I am in. No one that is in engineering thinks it is a value let alone the real value. Its a joke to most. Hype with no substance. No use case. And this is why many have no interest in understanding bitcoin. For most, crypto is gambling / scams and blockchain is only referenced as a joke when mocking the tech industry and its tendency to jump on bandwagons.
