I like how after every big Crypto scandal you see calls for "Well we should have X to prevent this from happening", and X is something virtually identical to a regulation/monetary policy put in place after some banking scandal or panic. History repeated itself on an accelerated scale thanks to the internet.

I prefer government controlled inflation to the inflation controlled by Giancarlo Devacini, who prints Tethers in billions with zero public control.
