This grand gesture, a ballet of compliance and coercion, mirrors the uneasy truce between crypto’s anarchic heart and the iron fists of earthly lawmen.

What the hell happened to Bitcoin? It dropped 6.25% to $63,442 in 24 hours-slid faster than my hopes for a better economy. A wave of liquidations hit harder than my ex-wife’s divorce settlement.
