I think it has to do with fiat $$ (USD) vs cryptocurrency. Both are illusionary b/c they aren't actual commodities being exchanged (e.g. gold coins -land- cattle- food etc). At least with cryptocurrency - there is a cap on the total amount available vs. Fed just printing more dollars when they need more money. BUT... when crypto goes up too fast- too high- too quickly- it becomes iinaccesssible to the masses and is equally useless in terms of fixing the econimic system.
