Capital “w” at beginning of sentence, no space between the question mark and last word.
Listen to my last words, anywhere!
Listen all you boards, governments, syndicates, nations of the world,
And you, powers behind what filth deals consummated in what lavatory…
To take what is not yours,
To sell out your sons forever.
To sell the ground from unborn feet
forever.
Are these the words of the all powerful boards, syndicates,
of the earth?
The great banking families, French, English, American,
squeezing the air.
You want Hassan Sabbah to explain that, to tidy that up.
You have the wrong name and the wrong number.
for this you have sold your sons forever?
the ground from unborn feet forever
And you want the name of Hassan Sabbah on your filth deals
To sell out the unborn?
I rub out all the formulaes and directives of the Elders of Minraud forever
I rub out the word “forever”.
What am I doing over here with the workers, the gooks, the apes, the
dogs, the errand boys, the human animals?
Why don’t I come over with the board, and drink coca-cola and make it?
Explain how the blood, and bones, and brains of a hundred million
more or less gooks went down the drain in green piss…so you on the boards could use bodies, and minds, and souls that were not yours, are not yours, and never will be yours.
You have the wrong name and the wrong number, Mr. Luce Getty Lee Rockefeller
Don’t let them see us, don’t tell them what we are doing.
Not the cancer deal with the Venusians, not the green deal - don’t let that out, disaster, unimaginable disaster.
These things take time, and that’s my business
Crab men, Tape-worms, Intestinal parasites… Like Burroughs, that proud American name?
Proud of what exactly?
Would you all like to see exactly what Burroughs has to be proud of?
The Mayan Caper, the Centipede Hype, the Short-time racket, the Heavy-metal gimmick?
All right, Mister Burroughs, who bears my name and my words bear it all the way for all to see,
in Times Square, in Piccadilly, Place de la Concorde
Play it all, play it all, play it all back.
Pay it all, pay it all, pay it alllll back.

The Economist: Trash as usual.
The Economist is staffed by imbecile liars who can't face the truth. Bitcoin exists through the thought and work of the lofty idealists who wrote it and work with it, and liars at the Economist, who can't even put their names to their own words don't understand those ideals even in the abstract.
We know that they're wrong because we're working on Azteco, which will fulfill the lofty goals of b(B)itcoin. And the fact that they use the word "crypto" shows straight away that they're pig ignorant imbeciles.
There is no such thing as "crypto" or "digital assets" and there is less hyperbole now because the future predicted by me and others is coming to pass, and is just normal and not speculation. This has nothing to do with "investors" whose investments mean nothing without the complete fulfillment of our predictions; chiefly that bitcoin becomes money at every scale.
Bitcoiners don't wear Patagonia gilets either; its Barbour shooting jackets, lads. What a bunch of idiots they are. They're why Britain is FAILING and will continue to FAIL, and they will deserve everything they get; RELEGATION to HISTORY'S LOSERS and YESTERDAY'S MEN.

"The browser wars teach us something crucial about business today: Innovation isn't just about technology."
This is a lesson that has yet to penetrate bitcoin. Innovation is not just about technology or threat modeling; it's about serving people.
Software and technology (two separate things) are there to serve people, not to exist in absentia of people.
Bitcoin's underlying innovations must be abstracted and humanized in the same way that Netscape humanized the World Wide Web, which previously was accessed by tools like the CERN browsers.
Thinking that bitcoin is "an asset" or "digital gold" is like believing the World Wide Web is "A Global Digital Library", and it's the same class of people making this miscategorization, in a field that has the same or greater potential to change everything.
Imagine trying to imagine Twitter, or Flickr or Signal or WhatsApp or the iPhone...or bitcoin in the early days of the web.
It's literally impossible, and for most, unthinkable.
So many innovations have been compounding on each other, where we are today would be literally incomprehensible to a man in the 1990s using a text based browser to search an HTML document.
The same thing is happening with bitcoin. The future of bitcoin is incomprehensible to the normal man, even people immersed in software as a service and "Tech", because bitcoin touches something fundamental to their lives:
Money.
And because a very large, very complex software and hardware infrastructure is now in place the rate of change of innovation is much faster than it was in the 1990s and the bottom of the column in the pillar of innovators is very wide, with many innovators working at every scale.
In a situation like this, innovations can emerge very rapidly, and if the conditions are right, spread globally at light speed.
Sadly, many people "in the space" are of limited imagination and threadbare in their knowledge of the history of the Internets, crippling their expectations and making it almost impossible to spot the next big thing before everyone else is talking about it and it's too embarrassing for them to admit they still, "don't get it".
Because the base of the pillar is so wide and powerful, these ignorant people cannot stop what's coming next, and key to this is the Open Source software movement and ecosystem, removing the licensing woes and barriers that used to plague software companies.
Did you know that an evil company had the "Patent" for, "The other person is typing"? If you wanted to use that feature in your software, having written it yourself, you could be sued by that company and it's evil founder.
I'll leave you to guess who it was...but I digress...
Bitcoin has a long way to go, and if you listen to the Wall Street Wonks to get your contextualization of it, you will be a loser.
And no one wants that...do they?

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

I knew you were from INGSOC when you used the word “fair”.
I recommend azte.co since you can buy it essentially instantly and it’s private. Most of the people on earth are not westerners with thousands to spend on bitcoin in the hopes that it will go up. There are billions of people who all use mobile phones and who need bitcoin just like Geordies do.
Very soon, buying bitcoin will not be controversial at all; just like buying a bottle of Guiness. This time can’t come too quickly, so that the constant withering service permuting and other guff that has plagued bitcoin since the early forums where people competed to see how many services they could chain together to buy bitcoin were “a thing”.
The best time to be in bitcoin is now. This has always been true, just like the best time to have money is always now. When people wake up to this and stop thinking about bitcoin like its a special thing, we will have all crossed the Rubicon with red capes on.

As bitcoin crosses $100,000 there are still people out there, who absolutely should know better, who are directing users to buy it from KYC Gulag Services.
Out of one side of their mouths, they complain about censorship, government overreach and tyranny, but out of the other they openly promote bad services that abuse users. Why?
Worst of all, they do this to people who are new to bitcoin, giving them a completely false impression that it is a requirement for you to identify yourself to use bitcoin.
What is wrong with these people?
What's wrong with them is that their thinking is incomplete, and they have a slave mentality, brought about by years of being in opposition.
Also, many of the services people recommend are USA only, which is yet another arbitrary restriction. Why is it so hard for people to think?
They simultaneously want bitcoin to change the world, but refuse to help it do that, by recommending inferior services that will not move that ball forward.
I'm sorry to report, dear reader, that it will always be like this; there is an upper limit to the imaginations of the majority of people, even very clever and expert ones, that prevents them from connecting the dots.
It's a tragedy that people who also have large platforms don't take that responsibility seriously. But there it is.
Not to worry; bitcoin is going to spread and dominate globally without them, just as it reached $100,000 without their aid.

President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin on bitcoin: “Everyone will strive to reduce costs and increase reliability"
And of course, "increase reliability" means not using western payment rails that are riddled with and plagued by fraud at every level (from the fact that fraudulent fiat currencies are what is being mediated, to the fact that impersonation is rampant, both of which are eliminated by bitcoin), but settling on bitcoin which eliminates both, and the systemic risk of having Uncle Sam being the controller of the currency and the payment rails, enabling him to both steal from your citizens, expose them to fraud and surveillance and weaponize the payment rais as "Sanctions" levers.
No.
Bitcoin is the answer to all of this, and it's incredible that it has taken Russia so long to understand this reality.
Now that they do, spurred on by GEPOTUS openly threatening them like a gangster, perhaps Russia and BRICS will go full retard for Bitcoin. If they do this, they cannot lose.
Just as the International Community rejected the CDMA mobile phone standard for GSM, and America grudgingly followed along, the entire world can settle on Bitcoin and American will join in.
BRICS winning does not mean America losing by the way.
BRICS winning means America wins.
Only America has the political system and the software engineering culture and genius to pull off becoming the world's centre for bitcoin.
They did it with Silicon Valley and will do it with bitcoin.
Other cultures cannot compete with American culture. Think about it; do you really believe that FRANCE can compete with America as a centre of software businesses? Or Britain? No one in their right mind is thinking about incorporating in INGSOC to establish offices in Shoreditch.
INGSOC in particular were warned about this:

and so they can't say they were not warned.
Russia is in a unique position to weaponize bitcoin and Americanism against Americans.
They can leverage BRICS to adopt bitcoin, and at the same time, obliquely encourage America to "FOMO" into unleashing American genius to protect itself from dedollarization by deregulating bitcoin businesses (which they are already obliged to do by law: https://medium.com/swlh/why-america-cant-regulate-bitcoin-8c77cee8d794) causing bitcoin to be the absolute winner.

Signal is not perfect, therefore, do not communicate or coordinate with anyone. Stay in your silo, inert and neutralised, watching the world burn while you are “safe” from being meta data spied on.
Meanwhile other protocols that are fundamentally ill conceived or weak or flawed get a pass, “because purple”, “because e-commerce”, “because Orange”, “because there nothing better than democracy”, etc, etc.
There are now many developers and software entrepreneurs, and a few software developer entrepreneurs, and a few software developer entrepreneurs who are not cowards.
There are enough of the latter intersection to completely change the world for the better, and it doesn’t matter what anyone “thinks” about what they’re doing or whether or not it’s fit for any particular purpose.
Central to their power is the ability to grasp scale and properly assess threats. They don’t suffer from Mind Blindness; they understand that software is about serving people, and not about perfection. They also don’t make breathless impossible claims or promises either, or let weak minded fanboy imaginations run wild…

And what happened to "simping for Trump"? Now you have to simp for Trump for Trump to Free Ross!

2024-11-25 16:17:15 GMT

Despite what some people might believe, what is not required is a "Pressure Group" to help Bitcoin adoption.
Well meaning people who've grown up in INGSOC believe that the optics of opposition politics is what will keep Bitcoin users safe from regulation. They're 100% wrong.
Listing companies that people should use because they're "unregulated" or "outside the law" only generates scrutiny targets. It doesn't help anyone, and actually has another, hidden purpose.
People love to rally behind the underdog; what they're trying to do is create the next "Assange", or "CND", or "Occupy Wall Street" that they can be the heads of, so that they're constantly being interviewed and getting their profile raised in the Mainstream Media.
This will increase "Membership" in their organizations, opening the door to future employment in the "Compliance" departments of the companies they "defended", or will allow them to contract out consultancy roles for their companies.
Think Rico and BitLicense as examples.
And of course, being the de facto heads of "the Industry", not only will they scrape up money, but they'll be directly consulted on the rules to govern the companies they "represent", ensuring permanent roles for themselves in perpetuity.
If you should refuse their offer of consultancy, they will threaten you that you will not be aware of upcoming changes and will not have a, "Seat at the Table" to protect yourself from predation, as they have a direct line to the violent thugs who could shut you down.
Not going along with them will be portrayed as being an outsider with something to hide, as the people representing the industry will be for "transparency" and "Society".
This is exactly how this matter works. It is not about the law or right or wrong; it is about making jobs for people who can't write software and who are not able, for whatever reason, to form companies to serve other people directly
They see some new field that does not have "regulation" and they anoint themselves as contact points, injecting themselves into the market where no real purpose is served.

This is true. People are more interested in having their biases and prejudices confirmed and magnified, rather than serving others for the greater good.
They’re not interested in right and wrong; in fact they don’t believe there is right and wrong, like John Maynard Keynes. This is the reality everyone lives in.
Thankfully, there is only one reality, whether anyone likes it or not. This reality is being played out right now in Bitcoin.
No matter what anyone’s feelings are, their cereal box philosophies, delusions and threadbare personalities, the actual reality will assert itself, and whether or not you agree with it, or the people who tell the truth, everyone is subject to it.
We are going to win. The enemies of reality are going to lose. We can see this playing out in real time, with people saying one thing and doing another, believing this will not be noticed. Everyone notices. Everybody knows.

I'm afraid this is literally not true, in any real sense of the words. Civil servants do not "work for us." This is why Bitcoin was created in the first place, and I suspect Satoshi knew this.
If Civil Servants worked for us, the money supply would not run out of control, and there would never have been a need for Bitcoin to be written. It is precisely because Civil Servants do not work for us that Bitcoin is required to act as an external, automatic constraint on them.
The abuses of the Civil Servants (the permanent government) and the elected politicians (the window dressing) is well known, and only naïve teenager believes in The State, and that, "After all, they're out there to protect us."
It's almost as if recent history has not happened (COVID-19) and the entire 20th century was just a fiction in a bad science fiction novel.
How can anyone think politicians and Civil Servants are working for the people? It's baffling; but many people maintain a quasi religious belief in the State, because that's all they can imagine, and frankly, that's OK.
Bitcoin must do what it was designed to do in spite of the people and their peculiar beliefs, even the people very close to its inception. It has to work as a force of nature, otherwise, it will not be as powerful as it needs to be to change everything to do with money.
It has to be said also, that there is a profound lack of empathy for Keonne Rodriguez and T-Dev on many sides (both of whom I understand have wives and children). There is no thought about the suffering they're enduring; it's as if they're just pictures on a screen and not real people. Shocking.
I feel very bad that these two fine, brusque men have been thrown in gaol for performing maths. How anyone can trivialize this is breathtaking. It's like saying, "Galileo should be burned, twice, because he is disrupting Society with his ideas".
No one today would say Galileo should be burned for heliocentrism, and this is exactly what is happening to Rodriguez and Burroughs. In hindsight, when it is not risky to go along with the crowd after people are vindicated is easy; it is hard to defend the rights of people who are being rounded up and hounded in real-time.
And for someone who just escaped the poison fangs of Faketoshi, I would hope there is sympathy for others facing unfair challenges to their liberty to write software.
It should be clear to everyone that giving $1,000,000 USD per year to CoinCenter did not work. It should also be clear that lobbying isn't working either. It has been tried and has failed. The Chambers of Commerce, Associations, Centers and other drivel have failed to protect Bitcoin users so following Einstein, doing the same thing over and over and hoping for a different outcome is literally I _ S _ N E.
Bitcoin is full of different characters with different approaches to the single realty everyone has to live in. We will see who is successful in addressing that reality. We know (slight diversion) that Apple is very good at addressing the market, and that other companies were not, with their utilitarian beige boxes that, "Get the job done".
Ultimately, Bitcoin will be exposed to this same dynamic. That's why the smart money is betting on Bitkey (for example) to change the world.
As for Samourai, I hope they take this to the highest court, sue their persecutors and win astronomic damages. I think they're victims in this, and by extension so could be the free use of Bitcoin. And whilst other people find them too abrasive, we now know for sure that the people with different, softer approaches have failed to midwife Bitcoin or even run wallets at a profit, unlike Samourai, who do.
Note the tense.
Is there a third option between these two opposite sides of the question? If there is, I hope someone brings it, because it would be useful.
The original Cypherpunks wrote very provocative essays that made people feel uneasy, and now they're held up as incredibly insightful heroes. You're in that today, even if you can't see it happening before your eyes.
When the story of all this is written, and it will be written, I want it said of me that I supported the rights of these bold and aggressive men, and was not a mere bystander, equivocator or someone who turned away.
But that's me. Other people do "other"!

One dramatic way of looking at our tax system in relation to the question of subsidy or fairness is to assume for a moment that this is 1850, and that the question arises in the North as to what should be done with slaves who had managed to escape from the South. Let us assume that both sides of a growing debate are ardently in favor of freedom and are opposed to slavery. Group A hails the slaves’ escape and advocates setting them free. But Group B argues as follows:
We are, of course, just as ardent a champion of slave freedom as the people of Group A. But we believe it is unfair for one group of slaves to escape, while the remainder of their brothers and sisters remain in slavery. Therefore, we hold that these escapees should be shipped back into slavery until such time as all the slaves can be freed together and simultaneously.
What would we think of such an argument? To call it specious would be a kindly understatement. But I submit that believers in the free market are arguing in precisely the same way when they say that all taxes must be uniform, and that all specific tax deductions or exemptions must be canceled until such time as everyone’s taxes can be reduced uniformly. In both cases, the egalitarians are arguing not for equal freedom but for equal slavery or equal robbery in the name of “fairness.” In both cases, the rebuttal holds that the enslavement or plunder of one group can in no way justify the enslavement or plunder of another, be it in the name of fairness, equity, or whatever.

President Elect Donald J. Trump has promised to eliminate the Income Tax and move government revenue on to Tariffs as Taft did.
The Federal Reserve Dollar is dying since it is being printed into oblivion (the definition of inflation). If Lummis was thinking correctly, the answer to several of these difficult problems at once is obvious.
When the Income Tax is abolished and Tariffs are the source of income, it should be mandated that those Tariffs be paid in Bitcoin.
This would have several immediate side effects.
1/ There would be a very large increase in demand for bitcoin globally
2/ The Federal Government would legitimately start to amass bitcoin
3/ No American Citizen would suffer theft to achieve this end
4/ The U.S. bitcoin ecosystem would be turbo kick started
On the final point, these “monies” coming in to the coffers would be spent inside America, creating multiple cascading opportunities for innovation and learning in bitcoin handling. The “Bitcoin Coffer” would be dispersing and disseminating bitcoin into the economy, triggering the de facto “Legal Tender” status of bitcoin, which I note with appropriate disdain, this bill of pure fail fails to address as part of the overall strategy.

Imagine having the most wonderful Bitcoin wallet ever written but it is impossible to get Bitcoin without KYC. That would mean you have the most beautiful financial surveillance system, and something that is ant-Bitcoin.
In order for services to serve properly all of Ethical Bitcoin Principles must be fulfilled simultaneously. It is not a buffet of characteristics you can choose from, you either do it all or not at all.
A world where all money is under surveillance is a suboptimal world, and a choice.
Everyone involved in providing Bitcoin services must make a choice, freedom or enslavement, privacy or surveillance. These choices are not hard to make, and if everyone works together to make the right choices, then Bitcoin users will get the Bitcoin Ecosystem they deserve.
The biggest threat to Bitcoin now is the osmotic barrier between those with Bitcoin and those without, and the unwitting and ignorant gatekeepers who keep spreading superstitious lies about Bitcoin and what is required to serve it.
These people perpetuate lies about what Bitcoin is, what the law says, what laws may apply to Bitcoin, and whether there are even laws or not, and many people simply go along with their gibberish and irrational calls to apply anything, literally any law, so that you can pretend to be "Compliant".
If Bitcoiners cave in to the thinking of the lowest common denominator, the anti-American and the loser, then the proliferation of Ethical Bitcoin onramps, the prerequisite to Hyperbitcoinization, will not come to pass and bear fruit.
Bitcoiners must "hold the line", tell the truth, not cave in to the weak minded, the cowardly and the ignorant and apply the law as it is written. This is not asking for much, certainly for any American, and hopefully GEPOTUS will make this easier for the weaker amongst you to do without soiling their trousers.
If GEPOTUS is advised by the best Bitcoiners AND Ron Paul, then it is a sure thing that Bitcoin will be moved under the protection of the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America, and then the floodgates will be opened.
Fiat will flow into Bitcoin in amounts that Bitcoiners could not have even dreamed of previous to GEPOTUS, and once this happens, there will be no going back as the exits to the US Dollar close by virtue of it ceasing to exist.
America will become the number one country not only for the amount of Bitcoin in citizens hands' but for its expertise in the mediation of Bitcoin. When this happens, no country on earth will be able to catch up with it, and the financial centre preeminence of America will not be lost, but strengthened because one man, GEPOTUS decided that the law should be followed and American know how applied unbridled.
In the light of this future scenario, isn't it better to get ahead of the game and start laying down the thinking and tools to push Hyperbitcoinization?
I think so. Others, not so much it seems.
The allure of Virtue Signalling is very strong in many people. Their number one impulse is to look good in front of other people; they don't actually care about anything in particular, and will latch themselves to anything like Barnacles on a whale, irritating it, and slowing it down by de-streamlining its surface.
Their goals are set by other people, and are not original. They take "feedback" from Bitcoin's bitter enemies and then package it as being part of "the revolution".
It's fraud. It's fakery. There are no two ways about it.
Despite all of this, very very very big things are coming. Things so big, your jaw will hit the floor. And I'm not just saying that. I am not exaggerating.
The path to Hyperbitcoinization is every road, in all directions, all at once. This is possible if the people with their hands on the levers are the made of the right stuff.
The Trump campaign has shown everyone that a coalition of people who are normally on different sides of arguments can work together to overcome great evils.
This can happen in Bitcoin too. But in order for it to happen, people must disabuse themselves of the wrong things they've been let to believe, and cross the chasm to that place where Bitcoin is everywhere, everyplace, all the time, without restriction, arbitrary rules and anti human strictures.
I have absolutely no problem imagining this.
What about you?

Legal Opinion Against Regulation of Bitcoin Transactions
1. Bitcoin as Pure Speech Protected by the First Amendment
Bitcoin, at its core, is code—a sequence of alphanumeric text that users transmit over a network. Under Bernstein v. DOJ and subsequent interpretations of code as speech, Bitcoin is a form of expression. Transactions are merely messages that confirm ownership within a public ledger, making them expressive acts. Like an encrypted message, each Bitcoin transaction conveys information rather than performing a traditional financial function (such as transferring a physical asset). Because Bitcoin transactions inherently communicate information about ownership on a public ledger, they constitute protected speech.
2. Legal and Historical Precedent on Code as Speech
In Bernstein and Bernstein II, the Ninth Circuit held that code is a form of speech entitled to full First Amendment protections. Bitcoin’s reliance on cryptographic processes and public key signatures mirrors the types of expressive content protected in these cases. Just as PGP software was ultimately protected as a form of free expression, Bitcoin should similarly be recognized as protected speech. Any attempt to regulate Bitcoin on the grounds of financial control directly contradicts established legal protections for software that facilitates expression.
3. Bitcoin’s Distinction from Financial Instruments or Commodities
Bitcoin does not fit the legal definitions of currency, commodity, or security because it is decentralized, lacks intrinsic value, and functions outside of traditional financial systems. Unlike conventional currencies, Bitcoin’s primary purpose is to store and communicate a ledger of transactions, not to represent a universally accepted unit of account or medium of exchange. Courts have also ruled that Bitcoin is not a currency in cases like SEC v. Shavers. This precedent reinforces Bitcoin’s unique legal status, positioning it closer to a publication tool than a financial asset.
4. Bitcoin Transactions as Protected Publications on a Public Ledger
Every Bitcoin transaction becomes part of a publicly accessible ledger, akin to publishing content on the internet. Like other forms of publishing, Bitcoin transactions are immutable and visible to anyone with access to the network, and thus are fundamentally acts of public communication. Regulations targeting these transactions would, therefore, infringe upon First Amendment rights, limiting individuals’ ability to publish entries to this ledger. Allowing regulation of Bitcoin’s public ledger would set a precedent allowing the government to restrict any publication using digital tools.
5. Regulating Bitcoin as a Slippery Slope for Digital Expression
Regulating Bitcoin based on its use in exchanges would create a broad precedent enabling government control over all manner of digital expression that resembles a transaction. For instance, social media platforms could be subject to regulation if they included features that resembled economic exchange, such as micropayments. This overreach would undermine First Amendment protections, opening the door for government oversight of any expression that can be monetized or tracked as a digital ledger entry.
6. Inability to Differentiate between Transactional and Expressive Functions of Bitcoin
Regulation would necessitate drawing arbitrary distinctions between Bitcoin as code and Bitcoin as a financial tool, an impractical and legally unsound approach. Bitcoin’s entire value proposition is tied to its function as both a record of ownership and an immutable, decentralized ledger. Separating these two aspects would undermine its design and purpose, essentially nullifying the expressive and publishing elements that courts have previously protected.
7. First Amendment as an Absolute Protection for Bitcoin’s Expressive Nature
As an expressive medium, Bitcoin qualifies for full First Amendment protection from government regulation. The First Amendment explicitly prohibits prior restraint and content-based restrictions on publishing. Given Bitcoin’s status as text and a form of digital publication, any effort to control or license its use directly contravenes the Constitution. If the state is permitted to regulate Bitcoin, it sets a dangerous precedent for censoring other forms of expressive software and digital content, infringing upon core constitutional rights.
Conclusion
Bitcoin’s expressive nature as code and as a tool for publishing transactions to a public ledger is constitutionally protected under the First Amendment. Regulatory efforts would not only infringe on individual rights to communicate ownership and verify transactions through a public ledger, but they would also set a damaging precedent for the regulation of digital expression and software. Therefore, any regulation of Bitcoin as a financial tool should be viewed as unconstitutional, and attempts to enforce such regulation would face significant, well-founded legal challenges under the First Amendment.
To further reinforce the opposition to regulating Bitcoin, a human rights-based argument underscores Bitcoin’s role in enabling financial autonomy, freedom of association, and protection against economic surveillance. This perspective emphasizes that regulation would not only infringe upon constitutional protections but also violate international human rights principles, which recognize financial privacy and freedom of economic expression as essential to personal liberty and autonomy.
Human Rights-Based Legal Opinion Against Regulation of Bitcoin
1. Financial Autonomy as a Fundamental Human Right
The right to financial autonomy and self-determination is an implicit aspect of human rights, rooted in the principles of personal freedom and dignity enshrined in international human rights frameworks, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). Article 12 of the UDHR explicitly prohibits arbitrary interference with privacy, which includes financial privacy. Bitcoin’s decentralized structure enables individuals to hold and transact without relying on centralized entities that can restrict, surveil, or exploit their financial activities. Regulating Bitcoin would undermine individuals’ right to control their own economic activities, making them subject to intrusive oversight that infringes upon their autonomy and privacy.
2. Bitcoin as a Tool for Economic Freedom in Oppressive Environments
Bitcoin provides a crucial financial tool for individuals in countries with authoritarian governments or unstable economies, where citizens often face restricted access to banking and are subject to currency manipulation, censorship, or asset seizure. By offering a decentralized, censorship-resistant means of storing and transferring value, Bitcoin supports individuals’ right to freedom from economic oppression. Regulating or restricting Bitcoin access in the U.S. would limit an important financial refuge for people living under repressive regimes, effectively diminishing their right to economic freedom and the security Bitcoin can provide as an independent, transnational asset.
3. Right to Privacy and Economic Security under International Law
Financial privacy is an essential component of individual privacy, closely tied to personal security and autonomy. The European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) in Article 8 guarantees respect for private and family life, which includes the protection of personal data, encompassing financial data. Bitcoin’s pseudonymous structure safeguards user privacy by allowing individuals to transact without disclosing sensitive information, which helps protect against identity theft, fraud, and economic surveillance. Regulations that would require tracking or monitoring Bitcoin transactions conflict with these privacy rights, as they would mandate disclosures and records that risk undermining individuals’ right to secure, private transactions.
4. Freedom of Association and Economic Expression
The right to free association, articulated in Article 20 of the UDHR, includes the right to form and participate in voluntary economic associations, such as decentralized networks like Bitcoin. Bitcoin facilitates peer-to-peer economic association without centralized oversight, supporting the free association of users worldwide in a borderless economic system. Any attempt to regulate Bitcoin, particularly by imposing licensing or monitoring requirements, would hinder individuals’ ability to freely associate and conduct economic transactions on their terms, contravening their right to economic expression and association.
5. Precedent for Human Rights-Centric Financial Protections
International law has consistently protected individual rights to economic resources, particularly where governments might infringe on these rights under the guise of regulation. For instance, the right to property and economic resources is protected by the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR), which calls for safeguarding individuals’ ability to access, control, and benefit from their resources. Regulation of Bitcoin, especially if it involves confiscatory or restrictive measures, would effectively deny individuals these rights by imposing undue interference on their economic choices.
6. Human Rights Implications of Surveillance in Financial Transactions
Regulation that subjects Bitcoin transactions to strict Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) requirements effectively imposes a surveillance system over individuals’ economic actions. This infringes on the right to privacy and creates an environment of constant surveillance, where individuals are monitored in their financial activities, chilling their freedom to transact. Such regulation would disproportionately impact marginalized communities and those seeking financial privacy for legitimate reasons, conflicting with the principles of equality and non-discrimination upheld in human rights law.
Conclusion
Human rights law provides robust protections for individual autonomy, financial privacy, and freedom from undue interference. Regulating Bitcoin as a financial instrument would infringe upon these rights by compromising users’ financial privacy, limiting their economic autonomy, and restricting their freedom of association and expression within decentralized networks. Given Bitcoin’s unique role in empowering financial independence and protecting privacy, regulation would contradict both U.S. constitutional rights and internationally recognized human rights principles. Consequently, any regulatory efforts targeting Bitcoin should be recognized as impermissible under human rights law and as fundamentally at odds with the principles of freedom and autonomy.

The idea that machines are required to conduct elections is incorrect, and is not accepted in all civilized nations.
Paper ballots and invigilation are all that is required to run a fair and fully auditable election, and the introduction of computers to the methods and execution of elections is nothing more than tech / futurist cultism.
Fully invigilated and hand counted paper ballot run elections are what is required. The only reasonable addition to this is, perhaps, a system like Ron Rivest's "ThreeBallot" System that does not require computer tabulation, remains paper based and also introduces a level of verifiability.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThreeBallot
1/ Its implementation is familiarly looking and simple for voters to understand, compared to other encryption systems (arguably, the most important advantage of all).
2/ The ballots can be counted directly, without decryption. This is because they have the property that the sum of the marks is the sum of the votes for the candidate, even though any individual ballot section cannot reveal the candidate preference of the voter.
3/ There is no key that requires protection or secrecy in order to maintain security (the "Achilles' heel" of many proposed systems).
4/ While it requires a machine to validate the ballots before depositing them, afterwards the ballot record is entirely on paper and requires no additional security process beyond that afforded traditional ballots.
5/ Each voter's vote is secret, preventing vote-selling and coercion.
6/ Each voter can verify that his vote was not discarded and was correctly used and not altered in the computation of the election result. (And if not, the voter is in a position to prove that the vote counters cheated.)
7/ Everybody can verify that the election result was computed correctly.
8/ The method is designed for use with paper ballots and requires primarily low-tech devices, but is compatible with more advanced technologies.
The motivating animus of trying to arbitrarily mechanize processes comes from the psychological need of some people to hand everything in their lives over to machines, since they are incapable of handling real life themselves.
Machine are tools, not ends in themselves, and subjecting everything to them is not rational nor is it a proper application of technology.
Bitcoin was required because the money cannot be invigilated. Voting however, is not like that. It can be successfully audited by hand, and is done this way world-wide.
Invigilated voting systems do not require trust; in fact this is the only aspect in which it is similar to Bitcoin: "Don't Trust, Verify". Machines are not trusted and cannot be trusted to count votes, and neither are the human vote counters in an invigilated system; every vote is seen and verified by multiple people who are adversaries. It works. No one is trusted.
To a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. To a Bitcoiner, every problem looks like...what exactly?
The purpose of conducting a verifiably fair election is not the implementation and application of technology; the election itself is the purpose.

This is how Europeans and South Africans think, not how Americans think.
America is a Republic, not a Democracy. The Founding Fathers knew that the mob was dangerous and stupid and that charismatic leaders could emerge and persuade star eyed innocents to sell their own children.
Just because people vote for something it doesn't follow that it is legitimate. There are ways to secure elections without voter ID, which, if implemented, will bring in a European style ID Card nightmare that no real American could ever want.
The argument will no doubt be mounted that X and Y Americans are for Voter ID, and so "not all Americans". That is a FALLACIOUS ARGUMENT, and Americans don't roll like that.
Part of the problem America is facing is that foreigners who are not real Americans are distorting the governance and culture.
This does not mean that people cannot come to America and become Americans; it means that when people come to America, they should become Americans.
Take your Apartheid Era "Pass Law" thinking and go back to where you came from with it Elon!

Anti-Capitalist artists are the worst of the worst hypocrites.
Out of one side of their mouths, they despise and decry "Capitalism", and simultaneously out of the other, are jealous guarders of their own money, and total understanders of their own economic needs and not being, "cheated" out of "their money".
This child like and mind-blind inability to reason outside the fragile shaking matchbox of their world view is deeply troubling. The expectation...naïve expectation...is that anyone who can create fine art must have a broad intelligence and not a narrowly focussed one, is very childish and stupid.
What is the explanation for the ignorant double standards of these people? Who can say.
Some would certainly say that the "creative side" of the brain, being over emphasized, blots out the rational side...but I don't buy this.
All I can say is that it is deeply dissapointing that people who can think (apparently) and who have powerful imaginations cannot extend their powers to reality, simple arithmetic and economics.

All of this applies generally as Andrew says, and it also applies specifically to Bitcoin.
For generations the core beliefs and foundational narratives held by the fiat Central Bankers are collapsing like a deck of cards.
As their worldview and fraudulent financial system crumbles, they will fight desperately, becoming more and more aggressive and irrational, using lawfare against Bitcoin; and some of the companies that mediate it will voluntarily capitulate and obey out of fear or love of the legacy system, “because it's the best we have right now, and rapid change is dangerous”.
Trying to convince anti-Bitcoiners or engage in rational discourse is futile. Their entire lives have been based on deception, and watching their lies refuted in real time as the price of Bitcoin goes up and fiat evaporates is too much for their febrile minds to handle.
Imagine believing the lies of the Federal Reserve for decades, only to face this harsh reality suddenly, “I have been lied to all of my life. The money I sought, fought for and stored was a lie, and now I am worth literally nothing”.
This is the hard truth they’re facing.
It's far more comfortable for fiat heads, dollaristsas, Stablecoinists, incrementalistas and “Dollars on the Blockchain” infiltraitors to keep their heads in the sand, insulated in a lie bubble, lashing out at anyone trying to pull you out (Bitcoiners).
This is their current state of mind. They are like an injured rabid dog backed into a corner, snarling and foaming at the mouth. I would genuinely pity them if not for their active roles in destroying our country and people and their money, and fighting for the slave system.
They will continue to attack and insult and lie about Bitcoin and Bitcoiners, but it won't stop what's already unfolding and can't be contained.

Trouble and strife begin when people stop showing the proper care and respect for others, and you can see the result of this everywhere.
Bitcoin became necessary because a class of rich men believed they were better than other people, and by dint of this, thought they did not have to take anyone else into account.

VanEck's models are absurd as 1970's weather models run on VAX computers. None of these people can possibly take into account the innovations and services being built on Bitcoin; their monolithic point of view is therefore completely inadequate as the basis any meaningful prediction.
None of these people though Bitcoin was worth anything ten years ago; why should anyone take their threadbare predictions seriously now? It beggars belief that anyone could think they're prescient.
I can assure you right now, knowing what I know to be absolutely true, thinks that they don't know, that their prediction is woefully inaccurate and wholly inadequate. Their ridiculous model has underestimated the total demand for Bitcoin, even in the near term
And I mean very near term.
I'm not interested in whether or not VanEck understands or believes this or not. I'm not here to convince them of anything. I'm simply here to do it and to prove it by doing it.
That's all there is to it.

In 2000 Bill Joy wrote an article entitled, “Why the Future Doesn’t Need Us”. it was published in Wired magazine.
Californian technologistas are sometimes very pessimistic and often very bad at predicting the future.
There’s no reason to believe that the future has to be a bad one or that any of the tools that are being invented now are going to be the tools that destroy mankind.
Over and over again dire predictions about how technologies are going to end mankind, will cause terrible catastrophes and other fear porn guff have been trotted out again and again; it’s always by the same class of people who are more or less the same age. They are super pessimistic, un religious, ignorant, normally super rich and desperate to control other people.
These people need to be ignored. First of all, spreading unwarranted FUD is unethical (AnthropogenicGlobal Warming for example), second there’s no technology that man has inside computers that can’t be switched off, even if it were to become a problem, which there’s no evidence that AGI is going to be.
The choice everybody faces is whether we’re going to live like a bunch of frightened children, or are we going to live like men and go to the stars and do all those other things.
If everybody’s frightened of every single invention that comes forward and goes into the market, man will never get anywhere, and I’m personally sick and tired of reading the fear from people who don’t have powerful imaginations and to want everything to stay the same forever.
These same people are terrified of bitcoin and they’re very very scared that if it gets big, deflation will happen and the economy will be destroyed.
Of course they’re totally wrong. Bitcoin is not dangerous and the fear mongers will be ignored.
However this is a perfect example of how these technologists who are scaremongers don’t really understand what they’re talking about, are men of low degree and low character and are antihuman.
It’s up to the people who create things to do things responsibly and to not let inventions get out of their labs that are dangerous. Sometimes bad things are going to happen, but the greater risk is to not do things, not experiment and not move forward.
The fact of the matter is the future doesn’t need YOU. And that’s YOUR problem, not OURS.

The text below is the complete reason why Elon and the ID Card fanatics are 100% wrong.
The UK ID card is not what you think it is. It is not a simple identity document like your passport or driving license. It is in fact, a database backed control grid and the fulfilment of Orwells nightmare.
You may have heard that legislation creating compulsory ID Cards passed a crucial stage in the House of Commons. You may feel that ID cards are not something to worry about, since we already have Photo ID for our Passport and Driving License and an ID Card will be no different to that. What you have not been told is the full scope of this proposed ID Card, and what it will mean to you personally.
The proposed ID Card will be different from any card you now hold. It will be connected to a database called the NIR, (National Identity Register)., where all of your personal details will be stored. This will include the unique number that will be issued to you, your fingerprints, a scan of the back of your eye, and your photograph. Your name, address and date of birth will also obviously be stored there.
There will be spaces on this database for your religion, residence status, and many other private and personal facts about you. There is unlimited space for every other details of your life on the NIR database, which can be expanded by the Government with or without further Acts of Parliament.
By itself, you might think that this register is harmless, but you would be wrong to come to this conclusion. This new card will be used to check your identity against your entry in the register in real time, whenever you present it to 'prove who you are'.
Every place that sells alcohol or cigarettes, every post office, every pharmacy, and every Bank will have an NIR Card Terminal, (very much like the Chip and Pin Readers that are everywhere now) into which your card can be 'swiped' to check your identity. Each time this happens, a record is made at the NIR of the time and place that the Card was presented. This means for example, that there will be a government record of every time you withdraw more than £99 at your branch of Nat West, who now demand ID for these transactions. Every time you have to prove that you are over 18, your card will be swiped, and a record made at the NIR. Restaurants and off licenses will demand that your card is swiped so that each receipt shows that they sold alcohol to someone over 18, and that this was proved by the access to the NIR, indemnifying them from prosecution.
Private businesses are going to be given access to the NIR Database. If you want to apply for a job, you will have to present your card for a swipe. If you want to apply for a London Underground Oyster Card,or a supermarket loyalty card, or a driving license you will have to present your ID Card for a swipe. The same goes for getting a telephone line or a mobile phone or an internet account.
Oyster, DVLA, BT and Nectar (for example) all run very detailed databases of their own. They will be allowed access to the NIR,just as every other business will be. This means that each of these entities will be able to store your unique number in their database, and place all your travel, phone records, driving activities and detailed shopping habits under your unique NIR number. These databases, which can easily fit on a storage device the size of your hand, will be sold to third parties either legally or illegally. It will then be possible for a non governmental entity to create a detailed dossier of all your activities. Certainly, the government will have clandestine access to all of them, meaning that they will have a complete record of all your movements, from how much and when you withdraw from your bank account to what medications you are taking, down to the level of what sort of bread you eat - all accessible via a single unique number in a central database.
This is quite a significant leap from a simple ID Card that shows your name and face.
Most people do not know that this is the true character and scope of the proposed ID Card. Whenever the details of how it will work are explained to them, they quickly change from being ambivalent towards it.
The Government is going to COMPEL you to enter your details into the NIR and to carry this card. If you and your children want to obtain or renew your passports, you will be forced to have your fingerprints taken and your eyes scanned for the NIR, and an ID Card will be issued to you whether you want one or not. If you refuse to be fingerprinted and eye scanned, you will not be able to get a passport. Your ID Card will, just like your passport, not be your property. The Home Secretary will have the right to revoke or suspend your ID at any time, meaning that you will not be able to withdraw money from your Bank Account, for example, or do anything that requires you to present your government issued ID Card.
The arguments that have been put forwarded in favour of ID Cards can be easily disproved. ID Cards WILL NOT stop terrorists; every Spaniard has a compulsory ID Card as did the Madrid Bombers. ID Cards will not 'eliminate benefit fraud', which in comparison, is small compared to the astronomical cost of this proposal, which will be measured in billions according to the LSE (London School of Economics). This scheme exists solely to exert total surveillance and control over the ordinary free British Citizen,and it will line the pockets of the companies that will create the computer systems at the expense of your freedom, privacy and money.
If you did not know the full scope of the proposed ID Card Scheme before and you are as unsettled as I am at what it really means to you, to this country and its way of life, I urge you to email or photocopy this and give it to your friends and colleagues and everyone else you think should know and who cares. The Bill has proceeded to this stage due to the lack of accurate and complete information on this proposal being made public. Together & Hand to hand, we can inform the entire nation if everyone who receives this passes it on.
