This proves that famous or notorious people who have large numbers of followers and who post on social media about cryptocurrencies often have conflict of interest, eg to pump-and-dump. Elon Musk.? Mark Cuban.?

- A New System - Why Bitcoin Could be Banned or Criminalized in the Coming Years - Monetary system changes could become a big problem for Crypto fans - Justin Honse - Nov 11, 2020

"Many Americans are unaware that it was illegal to own gold in the United States from 1934 to 1974. The US was in the depths of the Great Depression that began in 1929, and the government and banks needed to shore up their financial soundness. Gold was nationalized. Executive Order 6102 was issued on April 5, 1933 under FDR (see newspaper clipping below) and Americans were required to report, then turn in, their gold bullion, certificates, and coins at the price of $20.67 per ounce. Americans were permitted to keep gold jewelry, and no more than $100 worth of gold. There were prosecutions for those who tried to get away with keeping larger amounts of gold stashed in secret. ...

CBDC Coming

On the horizon, we have CBDC — Central Bank Digital Currency, which will very much be a promising new tool for the Fed to tinker with the economy.

I’ll only get into the significant, applicable aspects of CBDC here, but you can read my other articles for more detailed information on CBDC.

What you need to understand about the capabilities of a Fed-based CBDC all boils down to data and control. Having tons of data is an economist’s wet dream, and the Fed having this data means the economy would no longer be a black box to them. ...

It will be about the fact that just like in 1934 when gold was taken from American citizens, they want everyone in the system, especially during difficult economic times. If things do not suddenly and vastly improve in the US economy, and if inflation remains elusive to the Fed, we are heading toward a 1934-type moment.

Both gold and bitcoin are special in that they have no counterparty risk. Assuming you keep physical gold with you, and assuming you keep a separate crypto wallet, you are effectively shielded from the repercussions of a financial depression. ...

We’re all in this together, like it or not

In the future, when you get your stimulus, UBI, or other monthly stipend, they’ll want you to spend it. The one thing they cannot allow to happen is for you to simply be able to purchase some bitcoin or other cryptocurrency and get away from all of their onerous rules. This is by and large why I personally believe they will attempt to ban cryptocurrency, or at least place rules in the CBDC that prevent the purchasing, exchanging, or selling of crypto assets. They’ll want to prevent you from using an untouchable, alternative store of value — even temporarily. ... "

.
The future is likely heading towards a cashless and cardless society = replaced by Central Bank Digital Currency, and Bitcoins may have no place in such a new monetary system.
.

Yeah ill take my chances.

This is like saying gold will be replaced by fiat because gold cannot do what fiat does. In reality, there's a place and use-case for both. The same will happen to CBDC and BTC.

Bitcoin and Gold will likely be banned or strictly regulated by the Fed/Governments because the trading of BTC and gold cannot be controlled and collected as data by the Fed/Governments.

That's some funny stuff. Have a great weekend ahead
