A recent study published by political scientists at Freie Universität Berlin, Christopher Olk and Louis Miebs, indicates that the global cryptocurrency system has been undergoing significant transformations. The crypto system, which was originally intended as an alternative to currencies that depend on a central authority like the state or banks, has developed into a credit-based shadow banking system.
It’s more like a casino if you ask me. You place a bunch of potentially dirty money at the entrance, get your chips, either gamble them away, make it big or exchange them to clean money. Trump is literally using crypto to take bribes now, it might possibly be the one casino he won’t run into the ground.
