That there is no perfect defense. There is no protection. Being alive means being exposed; it’s the nature of life to be hazardous—it’s the stuff of living.
“Silly”
Very mature comeback. An excellent reflect of the validity of crypto use cases. Couldn’t have done better myself.
If you knew anything about business and industries, you would know full well that cryto/blockchain has been a massive failure in practically every use case other than two I outlined above.
If you did care about “privacy” w.r.t. crypto, you wouldn’t be using bitcoin.
Privacy and anonymity with Bitcoin? Are you serious?
Not being controlled by external entities? Bitcoin is controlled by a bunch of whales and various insiders such as Tether, the client development goons and random scammers.
All of them are looking to get some money off the marks. Nothing more, nothing less.
I disagree.
The specific methods, be it crypto or some offshore fake company scheme, don’t matter.
If you are a nobody and you give the government reasons to prosecute you, they will crack your scheme no matter how convoluted your crypto setup. This is basic common sense.
The whole “crypto = freedom” is a ruse promoted by various scammers and criminals to attract marks.
The scammers figured out that some low effort copytext about “freedom” is an easy way to attracts marks in context of a crypto scam, especially north american ones who like to believe they understand the meaning of freedom. When in reality their knowledge of such matters is extremely lacking; and I am being very diplomatic in this.
