## Quote — verbatim

> We think regulation is our biggest enemy. I think it's going to be autonomous bots that are going to be a bigger enemy... decentralization is phenomenal, but the biggest challenge is bad actors, not the government... I think when AI is just going to accelerate their exploitation, be it either stealing funds or be it, you know, using... for its own leverage.
