The US Government Will Never Ban Crypto. Here's Why

Decentralized networks make outright bans impossible. But that won't stop US Agencies from raising the friction. A necessary step to gain control.

As a Web3 researcher, I'm afforded a deep look at what drives people who enter the space.

Researchers gain perspectives from:

• Start-up companies
• Legacy business
• Academics
• Procrastinating public functionaries & writers

Their motives are diverse; however, I've now carried out enough assignments to see an emerging trend, common to all.

This trend shows Govt actions from a different angle. And it's rather dark.

As of February 23, 2023, Bitcoin & Ethereum have cumulatively completed 2,691,440,324 transactions.

Blockchain transactions are detailed and immutable. The total 2.69B count confers their legitimacy to participants and non-participants alike.

This growing record is becoming history's deepest and most accurate metadata map ever created.

The value of the data will grow into the trillions.

US Govt actions have a single objective: Manage access to blockchain metadata.

Keeping it open and properly recorded is beyond important. All without gatekeepers.
