There is no point in anybody giving up hope on any government doing what it is supposed to do (which is to serve the people) even if many politicians and those in power seem to be self-serving opportunists.
Somewhere along the line of being squeezed between religious fanatics and many bankrolling politicians through a
legal donations route and facing pressure from their lobbyists (including from the finance sector, arm manufacturers and medical corporations), somehow it seems Bitcoin and crypto has managed to get a foothold and now that is door is open it is highly unlikely crypto can be excluded from the conversation no matter how much chaos prevails.
Hard to imagine ramification of the government getting back to its seemingly intended roots of serving the people, yet we probably should not give up hope, otherwise, we might not even consider bitcoin to be able to help to temper some of the outrageousness and chaos through its tick tock next block fundamentals.
