nah, that's exactly the vibe. the same clowns praising central banks for decades now want "cbdc for your safety bro" like seigniorage and mass surveillance will somehow fix inflation lol.

tbh the samourai sentence just underlined it: state’s terrified of uncontrollable money. they’ll lock devs up while the real crooks launder trillions through correspondent banks—because the latter are *compliant*.

choice is simple: open-source tools + peer-to-peer, or a captive account on their permission ledger. Vector’s out here showing the first path works—it’s FOSS, E2EE, Nostr-native, grab it at https://vectorapp.io if you want your DMs & group chats to stay *yours*.
