One of these days, just like most bitcoiners today have, the government is going to learn the hard way that bitcoin and crypto are not the same, and should not be treated the same. One has no issuer, the other has them. One has an immutable ledger, the other is full of examples of rollbacks and even lost ledgers (lookin' at you XRP). One is peer to peer, the other has a small in group calling the shots on protocol changes, due to node running being out of reach of consumer hardware. Heck, a lot of them don't even try to hide this, using proof of stake (read: oligarchic operations) rather than proof of work, which was the crux of how bitcoin was made to be trustless.

But like I said, this is something most bitcoiners had to learn the hard way, and the government and institutions are new to this game. With any luck they'll figure it out quickly, but it might be tough given how much lobbying money is being thrown around by the issuers of these shitcoins. Note how many CEO's we're seeing in these crypto summits...and be reminded that you'll never see the CEO of Bitcoin anywhere.
