Yeah part of the issue is suckers who can't discern opinions from objective reality. They make the perfect marks.
The difference your refusing to process is unregulated currencies do not add anything to the experience while pretty much just creating loopholes
This is the process idiot people have to go through once they forget why we have to have regulated currencies. Kind of like how we got rid of the laws that forced wealth equality so now shit is falling apart again and we have to set things back to the solution we already figured out 100 years ago.
Which is why the 'blue chip' cryptos out there have been pushing for regulation for over a decade now. And we are starting to see it finally.
A regulated cryptocurremcy then just becomes a fiat currency, a less popular fiat currency than the others because there's no organization or government backing it.
This is what severe denial looks like.
Crypto is a scam, and it will always be a scam.
The moment we regulate it well enough to work as a real viable currency it will have lost all the unique things about it that made it attractive to you in the first place.
Well, again, that's your opinion. And frankly you are wrong. But that's ok.
One day I hope you break the conditioning and learn to process reality despite your ego issues.
My ego has nothing to do with it.
Because that's totally normal response from someone with no ego issues
