I’ve been saying that this would happen for some time.

This should be an introspection moment for Bitcoiners.

We aren’t going to live in a world where the state doesn’t have bitcoin, where central banks don’t have bitcoin.

That was always ideological retardation. Based on hopes and wishies rather than base level reality.

Two branches for bitcoin bros…

1. Continue to reeeee about the us government getting involved in the open permission less network we all love (which by the way we have zero ability to stop).

2. Or begin to have a mature conversation about how we would like the U.S. government’s ownership of bitcoin to look and then begin to advocate politically for it. (Which we do have an ability to do).

The choice is yours as an individual.

The problem is that we do not have governments, we have corporations masquerading as governments which are owned by a transnational criminal cartel...

More and more the right people (principled, Bitcoiners, care about liberty and freedom) have been involved in number 2, which is good.

1. begin to accept that Bitcoin is captured by the state and isn't going to be freedom money after all. 2. vote harder and ask the government for permission to use Bitcoin how you want.

What are the pros and cons of this?

Talking about the mechanics of how we're governed is not a sign of mature political thought. Why should they care about your opinion?

💯 I look forward to the day all major government spending is transparent on chain and they can’t spend beyond what we decide to give them (not much). The transition will be a caotic mashup up of the Bitcoin and fiat systems.

The US can't even purge pedophiles out of office, imagine thinking you have any say on what "the USG ownership of Bitcoin should look like". I'm sure some Americans in early 1933 also had opinions on what "the USG ownership of gold should look like".

Fuck the pedophile scum. Bitcoin is for your enemies does not mean that the USA and Blackrock should be able to use it to launder money for child sex slavery and organ harvesting. Fuck you if you disagree. Pedophiles deserve to be killed. Simple, that means the whole usa government, and if you ...

Why would there be any capital gains on newly-mined Bitcoin to be taxed in the first place?

I wonder which homo advisors sold them on “virgin” Bitcoin. Some boomer O’Leary type probably.
