Weird that they don't mention the Bank for International Settlements(BIS) is going to allow Central Banks around the world to have up to 2% of their reserves in Bitcoin from 2025...

Ha ha, I'm sure they could do much better at storing people's funds better than a decentralized network can, considering all the recessions and money printers that have happened since 2008 /s
Of course it's highly inconsistent, decentralized crypto is the one with actual safe financials.

Essentially this is an attack to consolidate purchasing power to institutional investors.
Since they limited the purchase amount to $100k+ then it will force individuals to consolidate their purchases to reach over $100k/transaction. This consolidation is a step to increase centralization to make regulation easier (effectively "divide and conquer")

crypto companies != bitcoin
We would argue they aren't even fighting Bitcoin here, but it is just getting swept up in the awful umbrella term "crypto". We as a community need to work harder to break away from that, because it's obvious by now that we have nothing to do with it.

Of course you're right, but I'm not sure if the government:
a) doesn't understand the nuance, or:
b) purposefully throws out bitcoin baby with crypto bathwater.

I'd bet that Joe Biden's governments has no understanding about the implications of such a move whatsoever.
It's like "hey all these crypto companies are going down, lets solve the problem by killing more of them", Nevermind charging the real fraudsters like SBF and clawing money back from FTX US.
