How do you think about crypto? 1) Digital money/gold 2) A "product" with unique features and functions that you need to convince billions of people to adopt
You live in USA with low inflation, no capital controls and okayish government, so you don’t appreciate the deep value proposition of Bitcoin. Your mind is searching for some kind of a dog-walking or a card-trading app on the blockchain as the solution to push the “coin”.

if you are a middle eastern refugee, a Russian billionaire or a Japanese central bank... do you buy BTC or ETH? Enough said.

1) I answered the question of "who marketed gold" above. Markets are not passive reflections of underlying fundamentals; just because you build it doesn't mean people will invest. The censorship resistance and monetary economics you mentioned won't be any good if no one knows.

1/ You’re thinking of it like a stock, or a consumer startup. But that’s an entirely wrong way to think about protocols, let alone Money. Superior Money inevitably wins, an inferior money can’t win. Silver is used in 100+ industries but Gold in none. Silver is 17B but Gold 7T...

2/ When it comes to Money, immutability of monetary policy is orders of magnitude more important than utility.

2a) I'm not from US and I think we have a different interpretation of "marketing" 2b) Majority of the world does not own crypto yet, and the value of crypto is based on market consensus. To maintain or increase its adoption (hence value) marketing and education are required.
