All of that is way more productive than crypto because something actually gets produced. Crypto is literally only gambling and scams, plus it's bad for the Earth. And I have nothing against gambling, it's the fact that vulnerable people lose tons of money thinking it's an investment.
Plus actual gambling is way more fun.
You're not making the gambling more productive, you're making the production worse.
