Social media only took off about 15 years ago. While it has been revolutionary, there have been unintended consequences (disinformation, polarization, teenage mental health, etc). We all believe Cryptocurrency will also be revolutionary but what unintended consequences do you foresee for Crypto?

Social media only took off about 15 years ago. While it has been revolutionary, there have been unintended consequences (disinformation, polarization, teenage mental health, etc). We all believe Cryptocurrency will also be revolutionary but what unintended consequences do you foresee for Crypto?

Title says it all. Smart phones and social media have without a doubt changed the world rapidly and has forever changed our lives. However there have been growing pains and some unintended consequences of this technology adoption. Do you foresee any unintended consequences as a result of mass adoption of Crypto/Blockchain technology? Obviously there will be major economic changes ranging from job displacement and inflows/outflows of capital to and from this new technology. But I am really focused on the potential societal effects that it may cause.

What are your thoughts?

EDIT: I was really looking for outside of the box thinking. Not the typical scams, losing money, shills, and pump and dumps we all know about.
