What they could have done isn't at issue. Trying to shame past actions isn't helpful either. It is what you do today, with your next transaction. Is that transaction going to be borrowing against your house? Is it going to be handing someone else slips of paper? Is it going to be "charrrrge iiiitttt" on your little plastic thingy? Or are you selling your reserve bitcoin? I actually have another opinion on this, but putting it its own post.
