No I'm saying this is a frankly stupid argument to make. Crypto has almost a century of financial crimes, history, and policy to draw on. The fact that they're stepping on the same rakes despite them being labeled is a point against the entire sector. Anyone smart enough to build an alternative financial system is probably doing more legitimate work in the actual financial sector, leaving crypto to 29 year old geniuses who barely understand they're running ponzi schemes.

You're arguing that we should try out this new, unregulated, and terrible alternative financial system that seems to only be filled with such trustworthy people as scam artists, terrorists, drug dealers, and war criminals because a system designed before computers existed sucked ass. Your audacity is shocking.

Crypto should be permissionless and certainly neutral. Regulators from different countries can choose to apply whatever rules they want.
