Crypto is like gold.
You can buy it or you can mine it.
This guy figured out how to cut down the overhead of mining it.

Apples and oranges. Gold is both useful as a mode of exchange AND as a reliable store of wealth, because it has intrinsic value. Crypto people claim that the intrinsic value in Crypto is its use as a mode of exchange. They don't claim it has any other intrinsic value. If you demonstrate that it's not typically even used as a mode of exchange, you defeat the only argument for it's real worth, i.e., the only thing that's claimed to distinguishes it from Beanie Babies.
