      I got the impression that they like crypto as an industry, not as a tool. I doubt they would guarantee safety for, as an example, KYC-less Monero exchangers.

        Oh no, they absolutely won’t do that because Monero actually works as digital money that they can’t control. So there will be no protections for it. In fact, I read a paper essay thing from somebody in the European Commission that was actually talking about attacking it by the government in order to purposely suppress it.
