Yes I do.

I trust our proof of stake 100% more than arbitrary Bitcoin miners who mine bitcoins somewhere.

At least our normal currency has real stake like people saving money to afford a car, people working and paying of the house they life in, salaries etc

We already have a very well functional proof of stake system.

Indeed. The bitcoin maximalists, like the goldbugs, dream of somehow surviving a collapse in which all that breaks down and they are the sole escapees, rather than seriously engaging with the problems and their fellow citizens. Getting their skin out of the game.

In some cases it's trauma-informed; they are, or know, people who really have experienced that kind of social collapse. It happens a lot in South America. People who grew up behind the Iron Curtain legitimately don't trust their governments either.
