I think it's pretty easy to buy the coins, regardless of government intervention. Countries (ie China, Nigeria) have tried and failed to restrict access to cryptocurrencies. Whether you get good execution is a separate issue- my point

I'm no SBF fan by any means, and I think his actions were wrong. That being said, not knowing anything at the start about the industry you build a company in yields 0 signal about someone's competence. How much did Brian Chesky kn
