How much smoke billows off Wall Street though? Didn't that particular garbage fire get re-lit surprisingly soon after the GFC?

I'm somewhat pro-crypto for it's anti-establishment roots (which are barely visible these days) and so I find it interesting that the standard it's held to is much higher than that for existing 'finance' - for which the bar is incredibly low, seemingly for the only reason that society has developed a callous against all that (g)rubbing.
