Oh, I'd love to see that happen.
We need more clusterfucks caused by AI, until people shut the fuck up about it.
Crypto was more of a fiction than AI and it's somehow still around. How many times can the same ponzi scheme collapse?
There are valid uses for cryptocurrency though, most notably buying illicit substances.

This book is good. https://www.amazon.com/Tracers-Dark-Global-Crime-Cryptocurrency/dp/0385548095
For sure. The book's epilogue talks about the changing crypto landscape and notes Monero. It more or less says that law enforcement is making strong progress on tracking those transactions as well. I don't know if that's law enforcement puffing its chest or if it really is and declined to give details.
