Of course, all those average people who need to be protected from themselves and their own stupidity by, I suppose enlightened betters such as yourself? Sure, there are plenty of foolish people out there making bad choices, but a fair number of them also exist among the supposedly higher earning, supposedly smarter classes too. Should a widespread program of treating adults like children in all possible be adopted worldwide? Or should we perhaps recognize that sometimes bad things do inevitably happen and that you can't legislate them away by banning whole categories of activity that sometimes lead to bad outcomes. Many of the people shitting on crypto on this very site, people who often make claims like yours about a public that they seem to look upon as little more than a moronic mass, work at high compensation for some of the world's most manipulative tech mega companies and have for years, but oh hey, lets preach about protecting the masses from themselves. Hypocrisy rarely makes itself absent.
