Cryptocurrency = bad
Opinions I agree with = good
Opinions I disagree with = bad
Me getting mine = good
Someone else getting theirs = bad

Lots of tools that are useful for marginalized groups are also useful for marginalized groups that want to spread hate. Same goes for the internet. It was hard in the beginning on internet mainstream (late 90s/early 00s) to find any community that didn't have a bunch of racists and fascists in it as well.
