Makes perfect sense to me. It was something you could wrap your head around more easily.
I also like how you frame onramps, and how you talk about an iterative process.
Curious to see where it all will go.
As to my predictions, I am afraid I am a little pessimistic here.
I obviously know very little about crypto, so I cannot take those unknows into account.
What I do expect in a way is anything that threatens established power, be it monetary or political, to be treated as such: a threat. The more unregulated crypto is perceived as such, the more blowback I would expect. The more it gets regulated, the less useful in solving actual problems it might become, since it might simply become another expression of what now are our regulated currencies.
Does that make sense? Any thoughts?
