As bitcoin crosses $100,000 there are still people out there, who absolutely should know better, who are directing users to buy it from KYC Gulag Services.

Out of one side of their mouths, they complain about censorship, government overreach and tyranny, but out of the other they openly promote bad services that abuse users. Why?

Worst of all, they do this to people who are new to bitcoin, giving them a completely false impression that it is a requirement for you to identify yourself to use bitcoin.

What is wrong with these people?

What's wrong with them is that their thinking is incomplete, and they have a slave mentality, brought about by years of being in opposition.

Also, many of the services people recommend are USA only, which is yet another arbitrary restriction. Why is it so hard for people to think?

They simultaneously want bitcoin to change the world, but refuse to help it do that, by recommending inferior services that will not move that ball forward.

I'm sorry to report, dear reader, that it will always be like this; there is an upper limit to the imaginations of the majority of people, even very clever and expert ones, that prevents them from connecting the dots.

It's a tragedy that people who also have large platforms don't take that responsibility seriously. But there it is.

Not to worry; bitcoin is going to spread and dominate globally without them, just as it reached $100,000 without their aid.
