Expect governments to protect and promote KYC Bitcoin, custodians, and regulated paper BTC.

At the same time, they’ll discourage or even ban noKYC alternatives.

That’s why building global noKYC Bitcoin infrastructure remains mission critical! 🫑

I'm afraid that they'll ban the possibility of buying real world goods/cash exchanging without KYC I have eno idea what to do in that case...

The whole reason for Bitcoin is to separate money from state.

KYC brought the state back.

You think it's your bitcoin, but it isn't.

You don’t hold the keys.

Because of KYC, it’s tied to your ID, address, and transaction history.

That makes your BTC much easier to track, flag, and target.

Leaks, surveillance, censorship, and confiscation become easy.

Self custody protects your bitcoin. Privacy protects you.

You need both. Don't forget that!

Kyc is the act of reconnecting physical violence to digital information.

One day it’s thousands of sensitive insurance documents.

The next it’s how much bitcoin you bought, your name and where you live...

KYC = Kill Your Customer!

Reclaim back your privacy now!

I'd have to say though; For me personally, Cypherpunk is more about *control* than privacy. This is also mostly true for cryptocurrency. Privacy in bitcoin is dependent on me never revealing which addresses belong to me. As soon as I convert it to fiat, it's actually significantly less private t...
