Both are useful in achieveing American political aims abroad, so getting rid of them seems like a bad choice from the perspective of the US government

I do wonder what the economics of these crypto scams are like. Like it's not poor working class people getting scammed, but wealthier middle classes (landlords?) who then, to compensate for losing money, increase their rents/squeeze the working class for more value.

In the imperial core i think it covers all backgrounds, especially middle class guys with white collar jobs, in the global south is mostly petit bourgeois and bourgeois the ones that get scammed by these since you need to be very americanized to know about that sphere.
