Interesting times. Dad, Husband, I mine fiat by practicing law. ⭕

Counterpoint, he won't be running for reelection and the opinions of his enemies don't really matter. There are a hundred other things he can do to shore up his legacy before he's done.

Looking forward to your talk in El Salvador.

Some people spit on thangs, some people drink cyanide.

I think the international aspects are already resolved by The Hague convention and other treaties.

I should add, we're fortunate (sometimes) that the rule of law we have in the US doesn't require definitive proof in the cryptographic sense but can be established through credible testimony. Sometimes it's not a good thing, but I prefer this aspect of the law as is.

I've been thinking about how to deal with this a long time. I expect one day the government will have departments that monitor addresses associated with "lost" keys which, if moved, will trigger a violation of some kind of court order triggering an order to show cause for the person to show up in court and justify the moved money.

PSA: If you ever lose your stack, like really lose it, and have to file for bankruptcy protection or deal with creditors in a legal context, please hire a lawyer who can articulate to a (probably older) judge how cryptography makes it impossible to recover your keys or you might find yourself in prison for contempt. This happens more than you think even outside the "crypto" context.

Probably nothing, orange guy and laughing lady are gonna do a jig and then there's gonna be more government for a while, but not sure for how long.
