 Wrong take. When new attack vectors are discovered, it must be improved. By your logic Bitcoin would've been fucked in August 2010 when that dude figured out how to mint 184 million Bitcoin in a transaction.

It requires careful stewardship by intelligent humans.

 fix technical bugs, sure. You can't stop institutions BUYING Bitcoin - even wanting to is completely against the ethos of Bitcoin

 I never said we should prevent institutions, rich folks, or even nation states from making transactions.
