No one is going to hand it to them. You can’t fight against government overreach and expect it to be nice to you too.
“Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.” - Benjamin Franklin
Fiat gotten us into deep shit, there’s no easy way out now.
Also, I don't feel like that Ben Franklin quote is particularly applicable here. If Bitcoin were outlawed, people who choose family over code aren't choosing safety above freedom, they're choosing to live for their loved ones rather than gamble on buying something that is easily trackable, oj the off chance that hodling will fix the issue in their lifetime.
Honestly, I'm not sure what the argument would be for using Bitcoin over privacy coins in a situation like that. I guess that's one of the main arguments I'm making here, if you boil things down.
Bitcoin won’t help you break the law if that’s what you mean. You’ll have to move to a more favorable jurisdiction or give up capital gains entirely. Monero wins you privacy, but not much more wealth than just using fiat.
Hmm yeah, that's what I was assuming. So, in other words, if someone can't/doesn't want to pack up everything and leave their home for Bitcoin if it becomes actively targeted, they shouldnt bother unless the law protects Bitcoin use, yes?
You could pledge allegiance to your local mafia, but yeah for normies it be over in that part of the world.
do U have a local mafia?
