Short term. What about long term? It could be the case that these "stable coins" turn out to basically be CBDCs (I argue they basically are already, as is the US dollar - it's been largely digital for years). It'll become very apparent that these systems are perhaps more controlled (cashless, more c...

Blockstream and iFinex have and had close ties. The undermining of BTC had been perfected by 2014. Long before most Bitcoiners here have bought their first coins. Now instead of re-aligning with cyphepunk values e.g. Monero we here Bitcoiners praise the maxi gospel (that is just another subversio...

Without reading anything but the heading so far: no. Practically none of the cypherpunks wanted to destroy the dollar. They only wanted to digitize money and if anything, the dollar attacked them each time they made something compatible.
