I think most of you today see Crypto currencies as what they truly are : a scam. Roughly 4 years ago we too a stand and there was more of a discussion in the team at the time whether we should do that. I am proud of the stand we took then and even prouder today.
Currently Crypto companies are taking an active stand against Democracy, putting hundreds of millions into getting Crypto friendly politicians, adding that to the list of reasons why having anything to do with the technology is plain wrong.
