I wonder when is the media going to mention that John McAfee had a unit in that building.
And that it collapsed less than 24 hours after his alleged 'suicide'...
Questions.......
Ok, so what was it like when your President/Prime Minister/Criminal in Charge (Modi?) canceled all your money overnight? Did you too lose all your savings?
You don't understand Bitcoin because you are 1) white 2) male 3) middle aged 4) citicen of the United States. Take away any one of those and with each step you get a little bit closer to understanding why Crypto/Bitcoin is perhaps the most important invention in human history!

Congratulations! You're privileged so much that you don't recognize your own privilege before you. However, for those who aren't: The 'underlying value' of Bitcoin etc. is absolutely obvious!
The fact that we aren't told what he died of is beyond suspicious! If he died of cancer why not tell so? If he had a heart attack why keep it secret??
An accident? Sad yes, but no reason for "please don't speculate"
Without jumping to conclusions - how much would it cost to hire a private investigator?
Has it ever occurred to anyone that passports are racist?
I mean the discrimination is solely on skin-color and accident of birthplace, little else! There is zero merit to being born in white privileged country but yet I NEVER see anybody protesting in the street against this atrocity? Why is that?
You cannot "destroy" crypto currencies. How do you destroy something that doesn't physically exist? However, if your goal is to reduce the use of cryptos then you might have some options:
Probably the most effective approach would be to eliminate the incentive that lead to their use:
The primary reason to use crypto currencies is to 'hedge' against violence. If a robber attacks me in the street and steals my wallet they will get the cash in it. But if my money is in crypto, even if they kill me, they will still end up empty handed!
This reduces dramatically the RETURNS on being violent. So much so in fact, that Bitcoin alone rendered all weapons, knives, guns, ballistic missiles, etc. obsolete!
That's why those who are attached nostalgically or financially to these antiquated systems are so much against cryptos.
Bitcoin and crypto currencies provide an opportunity for peace and prosperity that we have probably never experienced in human history.
So, to answer your question: In order to make cryptos "go away" you would have to find an alternative solution to make either violence, or violent, disgusting people disappear. And I haven't found any alternative solution yet. Do you know something?
As a sidenote: I find your use of 'we' and 'us' highly confusing. Who is 'we'?? And why did you not specify more precisely who you are talking about?
Would love to see your reply! Greets :D
Elm is an absolutely amazing language. Congratulations for finding that job!
As for learning: most books/resources are outdat d but thats not a problem: learn to use the compiler as your guide. You will find that you can change any code fearlessly by following the compilers guidance.
