There's a whole bunch of people at some really big companies that would disagree with you. It's the big trend in inventory, order and supply chain management at the moment with companies investing millions into it.
Could blockchain be just another fad that will disappear when something new comes along in five years? Could it be a case study for future MBA candidates to dissect why it failed?
Maybe.
But right now there's still a lot of upside for companies in the field and that makes it an investment option for a small, measured portion of a broad portfolio.

I don't disagree.
But if OP is really gung ho on crypto that's a limit I would set.
Honestly, they'd be far better off investing in blockchain technology instead of crypto as their speculative investment as there actually seems to be an upside there.

If you are "broke af" crypto is the last thing you should be buying.
Start saving money. Build up an emergency savings of at least 6 months (preferably 12). This is money that goes in a regular old FDIC insured, safe bank account. This is not money that goes into a speculative investment like stocks, bonds, or high risk investments like crypto.
Once you have that cushion, you can start investing for returns. Index funds are a good place to put the majority of your money. You get broad exposure to the markets so that when one segment is down, another is likely up. You can put a small amount of money into crypto if you're still interested, but I wouldn't put more than 5 percent.

The big problem with FUBO is it doesn't have any of the Turner networks. No TBS, TNT, TruTV etc. If you like college basketball, that makes FUBO a non-starter since much of the Men's tournament airs on those networks.
Also, FUBO's collection of local stations is hit or miss. They only carry 2 of the local channels in my area, the Fox and ABC affiliates. The CBS and NBC locals are relegated to national feeds.
There may also be no PBS, CW or independent stations depending on your area. CNN and it's associated channels are also absent.
