Crypto Nomads: Surfing the World for Risk and Profit

Gambling is irresistable to those who dream of heaven or nightmare of hell. Las Vegas, Monaco, Wall Street, Real Estate, Celebrity, Ideal Mate, Perfect Children, Sins of the Parents Resolved, Gods and Angels, why not believe in beating the odds, so much promotion of the possible wins, so many warnings of failure and ostracism and ugliness and poverty and wrong-footings and disasters and climate change cataclysms, see the daily news if in doubt of undeserved tranquility on peaceful lakes and ingesting everready pharmas.
Crypto is an opiod, to be sure, but so are fast trades, hook-ups, mister rights, saints and quarterback waging online. Billionaires won their bets against terrible odds, so the stories go, why not leap into the chasm, fly briefly, cash out your chips.
Far better than a promised pension after 40 years of obsequious knavery to a weasel who will walk away with your sweat and tears mounted on a high wall of taxidermied crybabies who lacked the courage to criminalize the house aided and abetted by taxation and treasury and theology departments worldwide.
Cryptoanarchy invented and espoused by the rascal cypherpunks in the early 90s will endure as long as the spy-fed secret casinos of cathedrals and houses of parliament remain in control of the mass death weaponry poised to unleash armageddons from the "National Security Wuhan labs."
