Out of curiosity
@newwurldmn , what is it that you don't like about bitcoin? Or are you just lumping the whole crypto space in your thesis? I know you're a very successful trader, and a few guys here will vouch for you, so there is no doubt in my mind about your status or accomplishments. But since you come from finance, it would be good to hear what you don't like about bitcoin, and specifically bitcoin.
Its fairly obvious that the debt will only go up and the value of fiat will only go down. And there is also enough good research out there that all government spending does is increase the wealth gap. (Hence the Cantillon effect)
And although as unlikely as it may sound, if we go back in history far enough, we see every fiat currency has failed, and every now and then you have enough citizens revolt against the some current king or some system. So it seems to me that there wouldn't be this huge push by some governments or organizations to destroy and ban crypto if there wasn't at least a bit of fear that it will one day take over, and hence the power by the elites will be taken away.
I'm not suggesting the USD is gone in 2 or 5 years, but the fact that the debt is high, and interest is also too high for the government to pay bills without a shit ton of more money printing, which isn't possible if they want to continue with quantitative tightening, means that there are some serious issues facing the current system.
