consumer crypto is only for making money, period. 
airdrops, investments(including VCs), gambling, tipping, NFTs,  etc....etc.. etc..

social is a by-product or add-on benefit, still serving the primary motivation to make money. the noble "data-ownership" benefit has not really attracted much users so far. 

projects like polymarket and @noiceapp have accepted this truth about consumer crypto and are leaning hard into it.

pouring money on ppl isn't something you sell aha
