Crypto is not a tool against the rich and powerful, it's just one of their few toys we normal people are allowed to play with.

Maybe in its inception crypto was a tool that could have given normal people some kind of power against rich people and the government, but that is long gone now. Billionaires and the state now control crypto. Crypto is majorly owned by whales, and whatever chance of the little guys wresting control of it is forever gone now.

However, crypto still remains one of the only tools of high-risk high-reward investment that normal people can partake in, without requiring a minimum entry price or anything like that. Crypto is for everyone, and it can theoretically make everyone rich under the right circumstances.

Crypto is not our toy as we dreamed, it has been seized by the rich, but for once we have not lost complete access to it. It is a tool we can both use, for better or for worse.

But just remember that can change. We are not the ones in control here, unfortunately. If there exists a tool that can help normal people gain power over the elite, crypto is not it. That is just a delusion.
