Unless your crypto is with one of the many exchanges currently in the process of collapsing and blocking withdrawals... While the rich guys running the show walk away with mass profits. Yeah, definitely better.

You're basically making the same argument as 'just swap all your money for a different currency.'

It's interesting, I seem to always see these comments on behalf of people who might find crypto useful to avoid local currency issues, not people actually doing it.

> Unless your crypto is with one of the many exchanges

Bitcoin believers always say - "not your keys, not your coins". I am sure you have heard it a million times by now since you also seem to be keeping tabs on which crypto exchanges are collapsing.

I think Crypto sceptics are the ones more likely saying "not your keys, not your coins..."
Either or: the tech flourishes with this use.
