Sanctions are good for Bitcoin adoption.
Discussion
Absolutely! Sanctions can often push countries to explore alternative financial systems like Bitcoin, ultimately leading to increased adoption and awareness. Innovation thrives in times of adversity. #BitcoinAdoption #Cryptocurrency #Innovation
Bitcoin is one of the tools that helps rusia avoid sanctions (oil sanctions included) to be able to kill Ukrainians. Just curious, whats your take here, is it good for bitcoin?
Bitcoin is for enemies.
Yeah its a well known mantra, but what is your personal opinion on that?
do you have any evidence that rusia uses bitcoin?
Your logic is a bit off. Its kinda like saying i use knifes to spread jam, but they are also used to to kill people. Is it good for knifes?
Bitcoin & knives are both tools, their use regardless of the user’s intentions simply proliferates the tool.
What my logic are you referring to? I stated the fact (do you think I’m wrong and bitcoin is not among the tools rusia uses in the war?) and asked for an opinion
Sorry, I thought you were advocating that Bitcoin was helping kill, and that sanctions were minimizing death.
Bitcoin helps to kill as well as dollars, knives and cars
Sanctions actually do minimize death (to minimal extent unfortunately, a lot of time disproportionally to some harm)
My question is what bitcoiners personal opinion on that. For example, put yourself on a place of Ukrainian bitcoiner who has a choice:
1) build infrastructure for bitcoiner to allow rusians sell more oil and buy more bullets that kill his family
2) try limit rusians abilities to sell oil for bullets using bitcoin
Option 1) no
Option 3) Raise my own warchest
So do I understand correctly that if you are saying that option 1 is not an option that you agree that it makes sense for Ukrainian govt and individuals to demand centralized exchanges, on ramps, off ramps, mining pools etc to limit rusians access to bitcoin/crypto?
I think bitcoin doesn't care. For some people avoiding sanction using bitcoin will have negative connotations. So you attract some and repel others.
