Whatever the banksters or nouvea riche may do, it cannot stop the growth of crypto. This is just the beginning, they cannot beatit so they will be forced to join in crypto investment.
How much should we bet that banksters and nouveau riche are helping drive the growth of crypto. It's more likely that the old money is the only money that's not making a crypto investment play. There's certainly more groups of people that have a hand in this fun than are admitting publicly. Part of that is because no one wants to lose...so if they're making a seemingly controversial bet they're likely to keep it quiet.
