Hopefully we will see this as a powerful turning point, heralding an end to cryptocurrency, with all its false promises of financial utopia.
Turns out it was nothing more than a series of scams, and the ensuing court cases will prove this beyond a shadow of a doubt. This entire edifice will come crumbling down, and take this entire sordid industry with it. One can hope.
I hear your anger, but consider that this is the one financial system where self-custody is an an actual workable option. You can't store 100M USD under a mattress. You can't deploy large amounts of cash without permission from governments. In the US, banks have to report transactions over $600 to the IRS.
That said, use Monero. It's the only one of these things that protects privacy.
