    I mean… yeah. Crypto is a pyramid scheme in many ways and you can’t make money by starting at the bottom late, you got to start at the top from the get go.

    People get into crypto to make money… did crypto bros truly think musky and the orange has altruistic motives?

    Basically, they’re mad that the platform has been set up (somewhat) in compliance with US law, which says you have to know who you’re dealing with when you’re making financial transactions, in order to avoid being a participant in various financial crimes, or being a way to funnel money to terrorist groups and organized crime.

    This is a requirement on every company that handles the moving and exchanging of money, but the crypto world holds onto the obsessive belief that they are exempt fun this, basically just because they really want to be.

    Trump, meanwhile, is basically saying “Just vote for me and I’ll make all those laws go away and you can have all the unregulated wildcat banking you want.”

    Translation: Barron read one article about it and told Trump in passing.

      I have a son. He’s 10 years old. He has computers. He is so good with these computers, it’s unbelievable. The security aspect of cyber is very, very tough. And maybe it’s hardly do-able. But I will say, we are not doing the job we should be doing.
