Agree with your assessment of cryptocurrencies in general but having seen the adoption of Bitcoin in authoritarian and inflationary regimes, the world most certainly does need access to a digital peer-to-peer currency that is censorship-res

To be fair, I went down the RFK Jr rabbit hole before he went on the All-in podcast - so thought leader? It’s no secret I am a huge fan of him, not so much the rich VC schmucks tho.

What makes you think he is a "nut job"? And how do you justify making baseless ad-hominem attacks instead of coherent arguments against his proposed policies or positions. Isn't that kind of smear better suited to Reddit? It
