If you're depressed and looking for purpose, for the love of god, don't follow the awful "have kids" advice. Bringing another life into the world and making them deal with your shit ain't it.
I'm currently in a somewhat similar situation to you, and a lot of what you're feeling resonates with me. Best I can do is try to get out and make friends. The local bitcoin meetups have been pretty good for that. Find out if your area has some recurring meetups.. if they don't, consider starting one.
Yeah, I dont get why someone would recommend having a kid as "the cure" either, but alas.
I've also thought about meetups, but the groups I've had on the eye were more of the social get-together type, at least that's the impression I got, which i'm not interested in.
Maybe i'm wrong and should simply give it a try...

What would your grandparents do, how would they cope, if they had made the choice not to have kids?
What will you do when you reach their age, and have no-one close to be with?
If you're not seriously thinking about having kids, you're sabotaging your future self. This is the reason you're feeling the way you feel, without purpose!
Life's purpose is primarily to achieve immortality through procreation. Everything you do must serve the purpose of finding the right partner to achieve this immortality.
No amount of travelling, bagpacking, meet ups, bitcoin, "try new things", and all the bs, will fill that void.
For the love of God, find a suitable partner and have kids.
Respectfully yours. 🫂
