Crypto Bubble(s) would seem to have little effect on the real economy unlike things like a real estate bubble.

That's the theory for how they view it now, while they are printing fiat.

If\When they stop printing fiat the theory goes that the CB's will turn on Bitcoin and fight against it.

Not that they'll be able to do anything.
Good analysis and probably more than just a little truth. The only place I disagree is that they probably will be able to do something about crypto through regulation.
