So now they have risked everything by too quickly trying to regain their advances in objectives and time in such a way as to allow it to be understood by the people. They must have an end date. Why? What is it? What is its significance? I keep coming back to these questions. Why would they risk it all instead of just slowly regaining their advances and continuing as normal?

Crypto, like any currency, gains value when someone accepts it for exchange of goods/services. If you go to Chuck E Cheese (or Dave and Busters) and buy a gaming card loaded with points, you can spend it on games. You can also sell an unused card to someone at a small discount and it will hold value.
Crypto is the same thing. As soon as someone accepts it for some service in return, then it holds intrinsic value. An example, there are some crypto currencies that exist that can be used to pay for porn on specific websites. The value of the crypto is driven by the goods that back it. If no one has interests in those goods, then the value of the crypto drops.
Bitcoin is accepted by multiple places for goods and services including Tesla. So you can't say it has no value because you can exchange it for hard goods.
