Sure but it's also naive to think that exchanges, the bitcoin central bank of tethers, blockstream, market manipulators, dev teams with premined supplies, and early adopters who spent $100 to own 26% of total supply aren't trying to fuck you over.

No, no, no, you misunderstand. That’s the free market regulating itself! Working as intended. Big difference from what those evil banks are doing in a regulated, capitalist economy which incentivizes them to do exactly what they’re doing in order to prop up a global economic system that enables many people to buy computers, become engineers, and build cryptocurrencies instead of jogging through the savannah with a spear looking for dinner. Cryptocurrency is pure.

Remember, it’s not money laundering, it’s tumbling. Big difference. It’s not wealth inequality, it’s early adoption. Big, big difference. Entirely different concepts.
