This article compares cryptocurrency to the Scientology of the financial world, pointing out that both rely on faith, terminology, hierarchy, and fear to maintain a group. They promise freedom but create new systems of control. Believers participate not through understanding but through belief, skeptics are shunned, and failures are blamed on the individual.
