I don't think the concern is that the language is going to get worse, but that funding will be concentrated on the few niches that benefit crypto applications, and that people might start saying "I don't really want to work with these people, I'm gonna go do something else."

Recently a casino was built near me, and they repaved a lot of roads and added bike lanes and stuff as part of the construction. The roads are objectively better now, but I don't want to live next to a casino no matter how good the roads are, and I would have preferred if the city government had funded that work instead, since I trust them more and I have some say in how they spend their money. If you were looking for a neighborhood to move into, the first thing you noticed wouldn't be the smooth bike lanes, it would be the huge casino you can see from anywhere in a 3 mile radius.
