There is a part of me that knows they don’t want to ban it, because it’ll reveal how little power they have when they have no way to enforce the ban.

Keeping the illusion of control is better than displaying how little of it you actually have
Completely agree - that is why I don't think we ever see a real push to ban it in the states. If anything, the big push would be special tax laws for it.

Coinbase Exploring Support for other Altcoins

Here is an article for those who may interested in learning about coins being considered for trade on Coinbase which may be a slight catalyst in the near future if they get listed.

Of those listed, I am a fan of DigiByte (DGB) and (vaguely) familiar with and looking into VEChain (VET), Terra (LUNA) or Tron (TRX).

I don't have anything in TRX, just noticed it was available on certain exchanges and is available on places like Nexo to earn interest. I don't like the amount of coins in circulation mostly, but do like the fact that that transaction cost are cheap and they claim the number of transaction per second TPS is very high in comparison to most blockchains.

What is the main reason you are against it?

I'll have to find out more about him, because at the moment I am a bit ignorant on who he is, other than the founder of Tron.

Tron is just a very hype based crypto. It’s basically Cardano with an actual working product that no one really uses

Since I did not know the history, just watched a YouTube video saying there was a lot of conflict with Justin Sun and SteemIt Inc and the Steem Community a little over a year ago, but most everyone in the community then switched to another fork, HIVE, to keep away from him who wanted to be sure it kept decentralized.

You would need to transfer from coinbase to kucoin or another exchange and buy it there.

Apparently the Russian foreign minister has said Russia and China need to get off “Western payment systems” urgently

Probably wouldn’t help with the debasement of the dollar. But I wonder if they’d entertain using blockchain tech as the new financial rail?

ADA should already be trading at $25 for the amount of hype it gets. It’s tremendously overhyped while being slightly undervalued in my opinion.

Undervalued? It’s worth $40 billion and doesn’t have smart contracts or applications
