I realized yesterday that what people are calling “crypto” continues to be lampooned beyond what even makes sense at this point. It can’t just be ignorance. It must be design. 

Trump is the perfect deflector in that many will continue to ignore and denigrate this transition, which is needed for forever dominance to be established by the few. 

How do you make the legal and structural changes without the thing instantly being bid to 1 million cajillion dollars and bring on the uncontrolled collapse of everything?

This is a good way. We are seeing a lot of cringe. For political reasons the forces will do what they do. Meanwhile we will have deregulation and the President of the USA telling you the most powerful nation of the reserve currency of the world is buying and not selling. 

And people will still fade this. Some masterful psyops going on.
