Whats funny is that none of the stock market bans and asset trading things apply to crypto so there is a huge loop hole right there!

Yeah the thought is definitely valid. The cause for the thought is also valid and quite visible. Dollar is definitely getting destroyed day by day. May be it's not just yet visible to everyone...
