I am a 58 year old independent with a liberal Democrat lean, who lived most of his adult life in the SF Bay Area. But it is more complicated. I have had phases - Republican (Reagan and Bush I) and Green (Nader). Politics have nothing to do with it. In fact, the politicization, moreso lately, drives me nuts. It has been conflated.
I think it is more about ones education and awareness of finance and money. Those using Bitcoin in Africa, South America do not fit the western political narrative, except as a feel good for some.
Real money is not political. Fiat by definition is.

I'm generalizing based on my experience, of course. Maybe I'm mistaken. I hope you're right. We will all be better off.

I hope I am right, too! If money is political, poor people lose again. What governments do with the money, that is political.
