Name one (1) [singular] way that Bitcoin has changed the world in any way other than spawning a million digital "currencies." Where is the Blockchain revolution? It's been over a decade.

Most people who spew bullshit about the "blockchain revolution" have zero understanding of what the blockchain is. Same shit as people who talk about quantum mechanics. The less people understand a subject the more they percieve it as semi-magical and are willing to believe the most retarded lies.
Bitcoin and other cryptos (monero aside) have never had any real use.

Bitcoin is decentralized finance. It brought blockchain techology to the forefront of human interaction and solidified a decentralized methodology of transacting in human society.

Literally one of the most important things to happen in the last 100 years

Only in theory, because in practice there is a middle man. Actually more than one, considering most people will cash out using their bank account.

Immutability, transparent , deterministic , reliable , decentralized . Youre being dishonest if you really believe there is no place for innovation with those qualities.
