@benroyce It has always seemed to me that cryptocurrency has always been about grift. The obvious part was making large transactions without gov't "interference". Techbros thought they could hide all that money from the IRS because gov't is slow regulating tech. But they failed to realize that when said tech helps avoid taxes, gov'ts move more quickly. Then, of course, it didn't help (or did help, depending on your point of view) that crypto founders started getting jailed for fraud; which kind of is the whole point of crypto.
