"Once again it feels profoundly weird to sit here and write about
cryptocurrency as the United States is faced with escalating state-sponsored
violence and terror.
This time it’s masked ICE agents terrorizing communities, executing people in
the streets like Silverio Villegas González, Renée Good, Keith Porter, and Alex
Pretti. They’re killing people in detention centers — people like Geraldo Lunas
Campos, choked to death by a guard, or dozens more through denial of medical
care or under suspicious circumstances. They’re terrorizing whole communities,
forcing people to decide whether it’s safe to go to work or to send their kids
to school. They’re kidnapping kids. And they’re threatening protesters, saying
they’ll enter their information into a “nice little database” to classify them
as domestic terrorists, following them home, and threatening to “erase” them.
But it is also in no small part thanks to the cryptocurrency industry — and the
rest of the technoligarchs — that we find ourselves with this administration,
and with members of Congress who either wholeheartedly support its abuses or
are too craven to do anything meaningful to stop them."
