Why should we follow just one person with stupid thought out there?
What will the feds do when the preponderance of cryptocurrencies have privacy features? That will add more gasoline to Rep. Sherman’s “march to the sea” for the purpose of blowing up cryptocurrency! I saw a follow-up YouTuber list all of his larger campaign contributors. I was shocked and disillusioned to learn that they were members of the U.S. banking industry!

I’m sure that money is being used for additional playground equipment, upgrading kitchen appliances, and video game development.
