I'm not a crypto supporter, but I'd say that he is right there. If _you_ found private key to a wallet with 1 BTC somewhere, would you leave it be? Even if you can't buy a coffee with it, the exchangability for USD is real.

Ok, fair. But I prefer a value backed by the whole world and the biggest military in the world.

So kicking puppies hypothetically in case of crypto is replaced by actual military deployment to every nation thats a thread to the petro-dollar.

And then you are fine with it.

Good luck with the ignorance.
