Charles Hugh Smith: What Would A Better System Look Like?

Simple question. It was mentioned in the video that crypto could be the “new” system. I know this is being closely looked at by many governments too. The question is, wouldnt you have some concern about big brother managing that new system? The way I see it, if the money system all goes electronic, that concentration of power only goes up. Theoretically, the government would have near full control of everything at the push of a button, no?
