Jack D on Nostr: Governments' misuse or misunderstanding of the word "wallet" when referring to ...
Governments' misuse or misunderstanding of the word "wallet" when referring to bitcoin truly demonstrates the incompetence of lawmakers. They would rush new regulations without regard to the impact a poorly worded law might have. I know that many might lean on "spirit of the law", but in this case I can't begin to imagine the scope of "spirit of the law". Would they really make it a crime to store a list of secrets? Perhaps, but only when it's gift wrapped in fancy wording.
