Many people start wood working at a young age. If they want to build a house, they need to acuire permits, comply with zoning regulation, comply with building codes, get sign off from a certified engineer.

Not all coding is the same. If you want to work to code in a regulated industry, you need to play by the regulations. Finance is a regulated industry, not a sandbox.

Yeah but at the same time if you mint a few beautifully patterned - 300 hours-of-work each - wood coins and trade them; it’s not finance and it’s unregulated.
