Ironically, it's a delusion of youth to assume that the older ruling class is logically or morally wrong due to age. State level management agendas are generations in their planning and execution.
See the fact that a stodgy old aristocrat wrote the defining book on this matter over a decade before the redditor class had their first epiphany on crypto.
The political class has unlimited funds for any youthful advisement needed for necessary corrections, assuming for a second that youth brings actual advantage. They have unlimited access to the smartest people, all who know what encryption and p2p is.
It couldn't matter less what mistakes they make when speaking publicly. They could communicate solely through pre-recordings of their farts and still have their way. For better or worse. The only actual arena in which the future will be decided, when and where it is actually contested at all, is that of bleeding-edge technical dominance.
I'd offer that they are less idealistic than are crypto-warriors, and therefore the bulk of the latter may not be well enough calculated in what they are wishing for. Yet, like I said, it seems that the argument ultimately will be settled in tech.
