Banks have federally backed deposit insurance. If crypto was cash, it would be the worst form of it - at least if I bury dollar bills in a drum in a nearby forest, people have to do legwork to guess the location of the drum - they can't just guess numbers on a computer and when they guess right, everyone throws their hands up and goes "too bad".

If crypto was cash, it would be the worst form of cash imaginable.

I posit that crypto isn't cash, or if it is, it's the worst form of it.
