It's not honesty or dishonesty. Politicians' actions are sometimes (most of the time?) just governed by what they think is the popular stance among their constituent party members. They are just trying to get reelected. When they lie, it's because they are painting a truth that their constituentcy will like.

I think politicians don't like bitcoin because the media doesn't. Media will report that they voted for that "goofy bitcoin bill" if they do. Members in both parties will think that is bad (older voters).

The key is for the young voters to become the new old voters while the old voters die off. The media will start selling to the new older generation that likes bitcoin.
