OK but mainstream just means “most popular” (I’m sure we’re in agreement on this not being a valid differentiating factor). Sure this drives adoption and services (like Morgan Chase in your article) just like Taylor Swift has more singles and radio stations have to play her; mainstream works for cultural phenomenon but money is social-interactive and economic. Unless your argument is genuinely Bitcoin is the Coke of the cola world, in which case fair enough…

I’m asking why these two decentralised limited tokens are economically, politically or technologically any different from any other token?

What is the argument why other tokens are casino games but Bitcoin isn’t ‘the largest casino game’ but instead more diamonds being sold around the corner from the casino?

May be there is and I’m not aware of it?

So less “their different because they’re popular” and more “what is the fundamental difference”?
