![Read_679 - Green Eggs and Ham, Part 1 [Farrington & Larson]](https://d3t3ozftmdmh3i.cloudfront.net/production/podcast_uploaded_nologo/1250935/1250935-1684252929939-32a7b4035be96.jpg)
"One counterargument might be that the de facto state capture of Ethereum in gradually becoming more and more OFAC compliant could, at the same time, be said to give it practical grounds to become more accepted as money via state enforcement, and more transparent than fiat currencies in traditional finance also. However, the cost is, once again, explicitly the loss of decentralization, so whatever kind of money it is, it is not decentralized and therefore cannot contribute to credibly decentralized finance." - Allen Farrington, & Anders Larson
