Controversial: trump's impact on crypto will backfire. He may be "deregulating" but he's also tarnishing the "crypto" brand even more and, in the end, new regulation will be written/approved by people who *hate* crypto even more.

Sure, but if nobody wants to use the tech with a 10ft pole after that, what do we do? Force it on them?

We are not seeing fewer people wanting to use the tech. Why do you say that?

Well, I *am* seeing fewer normies be even curious about it. We're at prices higher than 3 years ago, but the only stories you hear about are the grifts, the kids putting themselves on fire, the scams and the years in prison for SBF, the Celsius guys ... Etc.

I'm not in it to get rich, I'm in it because I genuinely believe it can increase freedom, agency and make the world a better place. Fewer and fewer people believe that.

I don’t think the crypto space is getting smaller. Maybe look at a very public specific case like @coinbase Look at their activities in the space now compared to 1, 2 or 3 years ago. It’s definitely much more now.

More activity, maybe .. From fewer people. We're far from the days where random folks wanted to buy the Constitution...
