Crypto Is Being Politicized Which Should Not Be Surprising

Anthony Pompliano argues that crypto's entry into politics was predictable, that voters have always voted on economic self-interest, and that the political process should be left alone. He cites Nic Carter's view that crypto is inherently political and will be a rightist technology, and Laura Shin's warning that politicizing crypto would turn 40+% of Americans against it. He also points to Molly Jane Zuckerman's Blockworks op-ed, "Only a fool would vote on crypto alone," which criticized voting on crypto alone, and notes the massive backlash it drew. He links the trend to the current president's record low approval rating and inflation above 50% higher than the central bank's 2% target.
