I think it’s all sadly just obfuscation to keep people confused and downplaying crypto as a whole. I was trying to get my dad to invest a little bit into bitcoin through his retirement account, even if he did 1% he would be better than not doing it. He said absolutely not it’s going to 0$ and not real. Yet he’s heard me talk about it often enough to know a little bit about it and how it’s potentially beneficial long term. I think this is a ripple (pun intended :D) effect of the shenanigans.
I haven’t kept up with the lawsuit in about a year but the evidence that he’s given the Eth side a free pass was pretty overwhelming. I’d be curious what site(s) are you using to read about it? I could use some light reading here and there!
Thanks for coming by. You are spot on, I think that confusion has actually served them well up until now. They see-saw between "All the laws are clear" and "I can't answer that because there's no regulation" so often, it's like tennis.Hey @cmplxty
We can only let people see on their own sometimes. I personally don't believe what your dad does (about Bitcoin) and we all have our opinions. If he's not willing to take the risk then that's fine, but then he can't later regret the decision if the opposite happens and he's missed the opportunity.
I follow many channels on YouTube (the digital asset investor is a good one) and I watch the hearings of the senate. I find that videos of people like Gensler and the others involved talking confirm that the words coming out of their mouths are theirs, they can't later say they were fabricated. As for the emails and documents, many are available in Google images now if you search "Hinman emails". Go have a look, there are some eye openers for sure.
