In my experience (both from BTC and from actual gambling) the euphoric highs of winning can be just as damaging as the depressing lows of losing

Free markets require rules in order to function, so it's not unreasonable to ask if those rules need to change.

Hard to imagine writing this and thinking it'd be a good idea rather than a hellish dystopia

It kind of feels like an NFT sale
"A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it." - Max Planck
Is the concern we might end up with a lot of paper bitcoin?
If people want to store their BTC with Fidelity I suppose they have the right to do that, even though that's not something any of us would do.
Bellingcat is pretty woke. It's a little weird Proton would be promoting them since OSINT is basically the inverse of privacy.
