I once peddled the conspiracy that they gonna pump ETH after tying digital ID to it
Could happen still, it is such a controlled and small market that they could manufacture insane FOMO pump with a single drop of all the money that is printed

That is well within the realm of possibility, given all we know about ETH and how tight the creator is with regulators.
Also, they could time the FOMO ETH pump to attempt to usurp the next bitcoin halving
It was kinda weird how lagarde deliberately used the word "Cryptos" a couple times when talking about CBDCs lately and how she mentioned the US too--as if they are working in tandem
Anybody want to ready a hard fork bitcoin client which reduces the block reward, just in case :)
