The author of this content argues that too much focus in the crypto space is on mimicking the traditional financial system, and not enough on innovation and blazing new trails. They criticize the lack of experimentation and development in solving user experience problems related to micropayments. The author believes that while applications like crowdfunding and micropayments in games remove centralized control, they are still reinventing existing concepts. They discuss the implications of interfacing with the legacy system, which can give it control over Bitcoin applications. The author suggests that the path forward is to focus on sustainable applications that can function independently of the legacy system, generating revenue for miners and users. They emphasize the need for markets for digital goods, services, and new types of applications to encourage Bitcoin adoption.
