I'll tell you the problem. The problem is the government. You can't and shouldn't trust the government, but nevertheless the government is forcing everyone to use their government-issued currency.
Yes, I know US Gov is not like Venezuela, they are not printing money like there's no tomorrow, but they still do stupid shit and try to control the economy. Crypto at least gives you money that is not issued by the government. Of course, governments can try to control it, like they do with everything else, at least through taxes etc.
