Yea, more or less. My broader point is that the KYC AML requirements from the government pretty much had negligible benefit and massive cost to the society. My secondary point is that we should treat BTC like cash. If i move cash around then the government does not get a record of it.
Could you elaborate your point? As in do you think that for example Patriot act KYC and AML laws are net beneficial ? If so I am very interested into why you think that ?
