I resent that we are moving to crypto. Our unhappiness with it isn't going to stop it though. I was forced to purchase crypto for the first time the other day for a product that I could only get by paying that way. It does do a good job of going around government over reach. But I view it the same as the stock market and federal reserve, can trust neither. Unless we stop being a global market there is no way to assign true value to anything. If we only produce and shop local, then it's easy to control a fiat to represent fair working hours. But even there is a problem of homogeneous society in belief and value. No one wants to go back to this kind of living, and so the dirty money scheme continues. Crying about it does nothing. Resistance is futile. You've got a little while yet--they're saying less than 1% of the world is using it at all. But this new "administration" coming in is going to push it from every direction. I expect to see a drastic increase of crypto use.
