I previously linked to this course on web3 by UNIC. All the lectures so far are free and if you're actually curious you could watch some of them and get an idea of the ways in which people are finding value in crypto that isn't at all dependent on dark web utility.

I'm drawing a distinction between crypto and blockchain, I agree blockchain may well have some non-currency utility, crypto on the other hand is utterly useless to anyone who isnt able to risk kissing goodbye to 30 or 40% of their money as the cost of transferring the 60 to 70% left over, that's just the cost of business in certain economic activities, it isnt a bad thing though if you invest in crypto, that is its use right now and unless it stabilizes that is all it will ever be used for

Crypto is, by definition, a really unstable currency, I could conceivably use dollar bills to wipe my arse with but it doesnt alter the basic nature of what a dollar bill is and what it does
