I didn't know that onealfa and edicted were so popular in mainstream crypto. Actually I didn't even know that crypto had already gone mainstream considering pretty much nobody that I know is involved further than just buying and holding random crypto they know nothing about on Coinbase. Even that is pretty rare still.

Onealfa and Edicted are not popular in mainstream crypto. They just keep us from being popular in mainstream crypto. Cryptocurrency is over a decade old. That's more than enough time for any groundbreaking world changing technology like this to be widespread and in the forefront.

In fact most everyone i mention crypto to has heard of it and knows about bitcoin. If you were to conduct your own private pool. I guarantee you over 90% of the people you speak with would have heard about bitcoin and cryptocurrency. So it's not a question of them not knowing.

The problem is there is no significant use case or urgency. Why is that? it is because people like onealfa and edicted focuis on nonsense and influencing the space into one direction over another. The reality is the people gathered on their posts are following their money and mindset lol. So good or bad they leading those people into what's going to be a blockchain focused on significant matters. If they choose to focus on nonsense the chain will follow them to nonsense. As at the end of the day. THey have a bulk of the influence or people like them

I would also say that the steem and hive legacy. These were important chains at one time. If im not mistaken i think steem was ranked in the top 11 of all cryptos.. I think it had millions of users and alot going for it.. I know the hive people try to act like hive is not steem. However i think that's disingenious. THe hive community is the steem community or that old community that was. So they share that legacy. Now the fact it fell off like it did when it had the attention it had and support of mainstream crypto. i would blame the influencers on that. Why? they have more reasons to make this a better chain than anyone else here. So if it's failure it's on their watch. I could not see it any other way.

I think thats part of the problem that anyone can come along and buy the chain, lol. There have been many solutions to this. We just fail to do a good job of listening to those solutions. We want to do things our way and instead of reflecting and making changes when they don't yield better outcomes. Lately certain centralized controlled entities have been doubling down. Maybe they are satisifed with the state of the chain. However they are the only people raising their hands. Most people aren't.
