It doesnt matter Republican or Democrat the real reason that crypto is bring villafied is that a congress person or senator has not been paid off. For instance hedge funds were the subject of much criticism prior to becoming significant poltical players in 2007.

You never hear anything protecting us from the high cost of healthcare cause they bribe a senator? Blue Cross/Blue Shield is a top lobbyists contributor.
