Prediction: The DoJ will pursue bitcoin miners for unlawfully operating "unlicensed money transmitting businesses" in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1960(a).

If custody or control is not required for liability, then miners are next on the chopping block.

You heard it here first :)

Absolutely a possibility this happens.

Which is why it drives me bonkers to hear bitcoiners say "Kamala will help accelerate bitcoin" or "Trump is a shitcoiner"

The guy literally met with two prominent bitcoin mining companies in the US and has been openly discussing the right to hold and mine bitcoin.

Although Kamala cannot stop bitcoin, she does have the ability to make our life living hell for the next decade or two.

Thinking you decide who is president and what they will do is like thinking a letter to the weatherman changes the weather.

Plan for the worst, and anything above that is a happy surprise. The system of control is what needs to be dismantled.
