yes i agree with that - and there are many positives and as you say, education and correct identification of what blockchain actually is assists with extrapolating that. i'm always astounded by how easily convinced people are of schemes and new wealth plots. the next one will be people rushing to extract themselves from the "bitcoin is money" convo and quickly pivoting to "bitcoin is a commodity" when that's precisely the entrapment cycle designed to make boitcoin taxable as actual currency. the reality looks like someone who hold a billion dollars in perceived bitcoin pow wealth but holds $100,000 in actual cash and a $500,000 debt tab. they will be financially taxed on the billion but it will bankrupt them. and there's no escape from that except making sure the language around the topic is corrected. wry simple but most people don't want to say real things, zap. they are conditioned to believe it's "unsafe". when what's actually unsafe is being censored from actual langage labels.
