Back in the dotcom bust pretty much everyone said “yeah, they knew the risks” and generally didn’t care about the losses.

When the housing bubble collapsed you had millions of people who probably didn’t know the risks (because everyone with a voice was saying housing prices never go down) and politicians cared a whole lot.

I’d say even if the whole crypto craze went bust overnight all you’d get is a collective shrug.
