All that is written are probably some of the reasons why centralized casinos still wins every time.
However, let's look at this way, when crypto existed, it was promoted because it could give us anonymity, it was new to use, hard to typical person but we are able to learn on how to use it because we like to achieve the ultimate privacy which was its purpose. Things are doing great until time has come that bitcoin gets more popular and it has been notice by the government or regulators, and that they started to regulate it.
If they can ban it, they would, but they'll not gain anything from it so they just regulate it.
That's a fair point, but we gotta look at the other side here too. Anonymity was a big draw for crypto initially, yes. But that's shaping up to be a double-edged sword in some ways. The way I see it - if crypto's really gonna go mainstream someday, it needs at least some basic guardrails and structure to build more trust and transparency with the public and get taken seriously alongside traditional finance. It's not always about black and white, banning or complete freedom.
