In the UK, the situation is more extreme, where every so-called 'startup' I find is either working in the payments industry (... truly a new furrow to plough /s) or the coin industry.

True, but surely the point of a startup, with real investors is to make money, not "save the world" or "get your ass to mars". Disappointing really.
