It also helps morons and crooks self-identify.

I have a friend who bought some eth in like 2015 (or whenever) just to see if he could make money on it. Same guy told me he once bought coke on the darkweb. As far as I know, he only did each of these once to see if they were true.

I would not associate with anyone who is an active participant in crypto. Much less anyone who owns and hypes NFTs. That's like telling me you like cops / are pro-life / believe Jesus needs to save me. All of these are signs that we are not compatible.
