I think this is what every crypto argument secretly comes down to, this ideological disagreement.

I don't want money to be separated from the state, and especially not at a cost.

One man's crypto-anarchocapitalist utopia is another man's dystopian capitalist nightmare that we sacrificed our environment for.

Imagine telling a guy who lives in a state with over 15% inflation rate that he's destined to stay poor because some people in first-world countries think that hard money is an utopia.

I never said money in any form is an utopia.

The utopia would be post-money imo and moving money away from the state would make that harder to achieve.
