  Problem is the first thing I think of anytime I see a new crypto is that it’s probably some sort of scam and completely blow it off.

    That’s not a problem. That’s the correct reaction.

      I mean it is a problem in the sense that any legitimate crypto is immediately written off.

        That would have been true if legit crypto existed.

    Convenience and security is a balance.

    Everything that is convenient is not secure.

    Everything that is secure is not convenient.

    Crypto that is “easy” screams “these people will lose all their money because it isn’t secure.”
