Ah, okay. See, we are exactly the opposite in that case, because I have lost all faith in governments, and therefore have lost all faith in what they call money.
Edit: Tap the Publish button before I'm into.
You could give me a bunch of government fiat, and I would take it and turn it into crypto simply to have more crypto because there are still people who desire to have government fiat currency. And I am not one of them.
I'm not saying that governments are the most trustworthy institutions in the world, but as someone who tried to be an early adopter of blockchain from both a tech and a financial perspective, I immediately assume that anything that has the word "crypto" in it is deeply flawed and inherently untrustworthy. I've unfortunately learned this from experience.
