Thank you! That was exactly what I was thinking....

Government wants control and power.
Cryptos are not that easy to track.
So they are afraid of loosing power/control.

That´s all.

Think about the sources of the bad talk about cryptos.
Then you got the answer...

Look on the other side: John McAffee is absolute sure about cryptos.
But he´s also someone prosecuted by the government....
