Of course he wanted to. The whole idea of Bitcoin was the free us from central banking. When Bitcoin was $30, this had hardly been achieved - it still is not accomplished today - but we are getting there. This was the point that Charlie Lee

I'm not sure if it is an illusion of safety, because the infrastructure around Bitcoin (which itself seems safe) is remarkably better now than it was 5 or 6 years ago. This is nothing like how wild it was then, so in comparison, it see

This isn't true. If you are hoarding Bitcoin and not putting it into productive use, you are reducing the supply. Thereby with constant demand the price should increase. In doing this, you have increased to wealth of others in the econ
