Since we are hypothesizing, here is another hypothesis. Crypto, being non-government controlled, maybe be better than the hypothetic alternative: a government ledger, where the central planners decide which economic activity is "good" and which leads to de-banking, and where decisions are made by government-controlled AI. Then this p2p economic liberty is worth the investment.

- Spooky23 2y agoCrypto is a commodity that is a fraud machine by nature of its trivial transferability. The lack of transfer controls makes it great for a variety of grifts, as demonstrated time and again. Even without my cynical opinion, Vanguard doesn’t have a heavy commodity focus, and it’s hard to diversify crypto.
- stouset 2y agoYou’re the only one hypothesizing here. “Crypto isn’t a productive asset and is an energy sink” is a simple and straightforward observation. But if you’re going to hypothesize things out of thin air, you can give them literally any property you want. That’s hardly interesting.
