For me it's not depressing but I wish people were more conscious of the idealsim of cryptos. People however chase money and most can care less about idealism.
For us who are idealists. Stay steady and keep promoting that side and perspective of cryptos. Some will get it, others won't.
People NEED to understand that cryptos are a powerful tool to hopefully facilitate change at a deeper level.
I'd say it like this. It's about the money, but it ain't about the money.
I will just do that despite feeling somewhat depressed by the money-chasers who don't care about the idealism of cryptos. :)
