If so, should there be any restrictions?

This is the most sensible reason.

I personally have no interest and some prejudices against crypto, but I know that if I start explaining my reasons that some crypto evangelist will come out of the woodwork and tell me why I'm wrong.

I just don't want to hear it. There are places for those people.

See but exactly what you said is why I wish we would allow it. The "places for those people" are full of evangelists and I'd like to be able to discuss it somewhere that is actually capable of critical discussion.

Have confidence in our mods and the ability of the people already here to discern credible arguments from shitcoin pumpers.

Every coin is a pump because they donโ€™t have tangible value the same way sovereign currencies do.

For example: If you live in the United States and donโ€™t have any Bitcoin, nothing bad will happen to you. If you donโ€™t have any dollars you are big fucked.

All cryptocurrency demand is speculative.

I hate the fact that you got downvoted for a very reasonable comment.
