Bitcoin started with people who were anarchists, anti-establishment. This culture around hodl and number go up is more about getting rich than fixing the world.

I was just saying this in another thread. The influx of people who just want to use bitcoin to make fiat profit, instead of wanting to use bitcoin as freedom money, is driving us down the route towards bitcoin becoming a government permissioned network. The current monero community is similar to the bitcoin community of 10 years ago. The bitcoin community of today is all about "when moon".

If they regulated XMR they wouldn't be able to decrypt it so the most they'll achieve is ban it from regulated exchanges.

Most scam centralized exchanges delisted monero years ago, and no one who actually uses monero for its anonymity is buying it on a centralized exchange anyway. Monero has been thriving on DEXs and P2P trades for years, and will continue to do so.
