My dear, if you’re looking for a financial revolution, one might do better to consult a horoscope than a blockchain. Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari, that paragon of fiscal prudence, has once again declared cryptocurrency “basically useless” for consumers. A bold claim, really-how daring to question the grand experiment of printing money on a computer. 🤷‍♂️

Unshakable Bearishness – A Virtue, One Might Argue?

For years, Kashkari has maintained that crypto’s primary use case is confusing investors. In 2018, he dismissed the market as a “farce,” a term I’m certain he uses affectionately. By 2020, he’d upgraded to calling it a “giant dumpster of digital delusion 🗑️” and praised the SEC for finally “cleaning up the mess.” One wonders if he’s secretly running a side hustle as a cryptic janitor.

His most sparkling critique came in 2021, when he quipped that crypto is “95% fraud, hype, noise and confusion.” A man after my own heart, really-though I’d argue 100% is a more generous estimate. When the market imploded in 2022, he clapped gleefully, declaring it preferable to “5 years from now when more people’s money would have been at risk.” A sentiment as warm as a November bank holiday. ❄️

And in October 2024, he added a cherry on top of his skepticism: “Very few transactions are actually happening on crypto… unless people are buying drugs or other illegal activities.” A masterstroke of understatement! One might assume he’s never tried to purchase a latte via Bitcoin. Or perhaps he’s just very selective about his coffee. ☕💸
