We'll be back to bartering with goats, chickens, and funny shaped vegetables before that happens

Because it's been around for years and has not been adopted by the mainstream. It's just a speculative asset that people hold as a gamble to make money, or to enable transfers of cash that people would rather not be tracked, such as illegal activity.
Because of its volatility, it's never going to be used as a means to pay for things.
You mentioned NFTs later in your comment; you're a few years behind on that. Those have entirely collapsed after people finally twigged that they were paying tens of thousands of dollars for a .jpg of an ape.

He sounds like a man who's happily mortgaged his house and sold everything he's got so he could invest. I bet he hasn't and won't do.

The people who make money from crypto are the infrastructure providers (who run trading platforms and crypto exchanges, and collect transaction and withdrawal fees from users), token creators, and early traders, while the returns for everyday retail investors vary greatly…

Non-paywall version

Having read the article, not sure the fact that the Council is Reform is relevant - I think it’s just the inertia and process of any large Council; in fact, the fact that the Council is Reform-run isn’t mentioned in the article (probably because it’s the Telegraph  )

Re: Reform UK's chronicles
All that messing about must have cost the council a bob or two . . . at a time when most councils are almost bankrupt (and you can see why)

Re: Reform UK's chronicles
Were Derbyshire a reform council 3.5 years ago, when they blocked her access ?
