We can’t have it both ways (and there’s nothing to worry about anyway)

We can either have our cake, or we can eat it.

We want crypto to to be big, we want big banks, big institutions, even countries, to adopt it.


We want that because we’re tired of government interference and because we don’t like banks.


And we want that because we believe this is our once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to build wealth.


At the same time, we want no regulation at all. But that won’t work.


We can either have our cake, or we can eat it.


If we want crypto to grow larger, if we want Bitcoin to reach $1 million, we need to bring in institutionalized investors, and that means regulation.


Big banks and large investors won’t touch crypto until it’s regulated, it’s inevitable.


And don’t get me wrong, I don’t trust my government. I don’t trust it to do the right thing, I don’t trust it with my money, and I don’t think it cares about me.


But what’s the alternative?


Like Churchill (reportedly) said, “democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the other ones we have tried”.


And we shouldn’t worry anyway.


We shouldn’t worry because crypto is a game that plays by its own rules, and it’ll eventually bend regulators around it.


Crypto is technology, and technology tends to run at its own pace.


The way money works, without crypto, we have nearly zero control.


With crypto, we do retain some control, regardless of what this or that institution or politician says or does.


We’ll be fine, we’re just getting started.
