It's surreal to see cryptobros cheer on blatant capture by 1 country, real or imagined, by heavily shilling "American coins", with very little resistance

Just more evidence for what we all know - very few give a fuck about defending a neutral globally accessible system, it's all about greed & whatever pumps your bags

In a sense it could prove to be the ultimate test of the tech’s fundamental aspirations of capture-resistance, ie if it can’t resist these kinds of geoeconomic forces, then it isn’t suitable as neutral global infra anyway.
