Machado, that outspoken dame who’s been shouting from the rooftops about decentralized finance and those shiny digital doodads, was always destined to be the first “Bitcoin Nobel” laureate. Seriously, folks-she’s been hawking crypto as the magical lifeline for folks trapped in Venezuela’s financial freak show, where the government plays Monopoly with real money. Boom! 💥
Yet, the structural implications, they whisper, could be historic. Historic, you say? Like the fall of Rome, or perhaps the great potato famine? 🥔🌋 Oh, the drama of it all!

They tilt at the windmill of accountability and whisper of concerns about ventures linked to the Trump family, as if exposing a masque and asking the audience to applaud virtue. A splash of satire, a dash of prudence, and a vow that regulation shall be as fashionable as it is firm. 🤹♀️🧐
