Is anyone noticing this shift?

Lately, crypto feels less like “early access tech” and more like something you can use on a day-to-day basis. A few years ago, everything seemed built for traders and degens experiments. Now swaps are smoother, onboarding is easy, yield is easily accessible, and you can spend crypto or stables with a card directly.

I still use DeFi for part of my bags because I enjoy experimenting and having control. If I want something simple and predictable, I lean on a more regulated, CeFi-style platform (in my case Nехо), keep some liquidity there, earn yield on stables, and spend via a card when I need to. It’s less about the maximum APY and more about low-friction convenience.

That shift feels more meaningful than any price move. Have you changed how you use crypto in daily life compared to the last cycle, or is it still mostly trading and holding for you?
