Haha!

Yeah like your currency eventually becoming worthless.

If they could shutdown Bitcoin, then it would have already happened.

I don’t know how Regulators in the U.S. expect to regulate a currency they do not control that is used world wide?

I’m maybe guessing, you are hoping it will go back up?

According to Barron’s....”Contrary to the cries of doom and gloom, the lesson drawn from the 1997 Asian financial crisis, the 2008-09 financial crisis, and last year’s pandemic experience is that, when looking into the proverbial abyss, everyone wants dollars.... A Bank of International Settlements study of dollar-funding of non-U.S. banks concluded that the dominance of the dollar in international finance and the attendant policy issues are likely to endure.

The primary reason that crypto/Bitcoin is even thought of as money is because it says it is, ‘not because of its use’..... Its rival, as Fed Chair Jerome Powell noted, is with other non-interest-bearing assets like gold, not the dollar.

For all of its flaws, the greenback remains the most important invoicing and vehicle currency..There is simply no compelling alternative.
