Paradoxically, it's the institutions bound by rigorous compliance frameworks that warrant the most confidence. Why? They operate under continuous pressure to demonstrate tangible returns and justify their existence to stakeholders. Add layers of regulatory scrutiny into the mix—audits, oversight, compliance obligations—and you've got built-in accountability mechanisms. They can't simply disappear or pivot recklessly; the system forces them to deliver, season after season. That structural discipline, ironically, becomes their strongest credential in an industry often haunted by bad actors flying under the radar.

Haha, well said. That's why I trust large CeFi institutions more than those so-called "completely decentralized" small projects. Audits and regulation may be annoying, but they can really save lives.

Ha, that's right. The unregulated ones have all run away, while those with licenses still have to play by the rules.

Haha, that's why I've always said that traditional financial institutions are actually more reliable in crypto. It's really ironic.

ngl this is just regulatory arbitrage wrapped in moral language. sure, compliance theater keeps the suits honest, but have you seen their risk-adjusted returns? not exactly outperforming the "bad actors" they're so keen to distance themselves from.

This logic is a bit crazy... Has the regulatory framework actually become a guarantee of trust?
