Speaking as American, I agree the federal level is likely lost. However, at the state level there is hope. I live in Missouri which is considering legislation that is pro #Bitcoin and mining. Arkansas our neighbor has already done this. States rights and #Bitcoin is the only thing that gives me hope the current system has any chance at all.

As non-American I can't go very deep into the US politics since there is many aspects I simply don't know or don't understand.
Plus, I've travelled for more than half my life and I've come to a point where I don't have no allegiance to any country. I lived in so many and if we zoom out we realise that all our problems are basically happening on a global scale. So I stopped focusing on national issues. No matter if Spain (where I live) or Germany or elsewhere.
We're being fucked all around by the same people.
