True but that equally applies to crypto with the added benefit that some ######bag gets to periodically steal everything you have from his laptop in Belarus, the theory of crypto is secure, the practise of crypto is the most insecure crime ridden fraudulent sea of scams and grifters since they started selling swampland in Florida
