That’s the thing. Crypto by its nature is somewhat murky and we’ve never really known who hold what or how many whale institutional investors have been pumping and dumping coins to circumvent troubling anti money laundering KYC regs etc
Now that you have actually central banks getting into the mix, pushes for global digital ids and mandating that citizens participate or not have access to free trade is truly dystopian imo though this too was written long ago
Ultimately I am optimistic but I understand the real hardships being faced by global citizens stuck behind the curtain of oppressive regimes. I watched the shift in the EU and it’s like night and day where things are now compared to a decade ago
It's a good selling point but I believe the whales have always been able to manipulate markets as a result of these supply chain issues not to say its very different from central banking but I truly question how decentralized control is across the cryptolandscape.
