There is heated debate between proponents and opponents of State regulation, and rightly so: regulation always protects incumbents more than it protects consumers.
This statement alone is highly debatable.
Any lobbying for regulation by Bitcoin-related organizations, even if the motivations appear innocent, should be looked at as a threat to Bitcoin as a whole.
Telling people what to think rather than providing premises should be a huge red flag that what you are reading is more propaganda than honest argument.
State regulations only serve as a barrier to entry for new businesses, which will lead to centralization and cartelization of the Bitcoin economy.
Regulation as an issue has a long history of debate, and is certainly not specific to Bitcoin. While it is not entirely clear how much regulation in any area is necessary, the idea that all regulation is bad is the purview of anarchists and other extremists and as such is not an argument that most people would consider worth their time.
Are you TRYING to come off as a complete tool? You cannot lambaste a fellow for creating propaganda rather than an argument, but then, in the
next sentence, do the very same thing yourself. Passing off an argument as not worth debating or as "extreme" is fallacious beyond anyone's wildest dreams.
Your statement regarding the views of voluntarists is wholly incorrect as well. At least be factually accurate when you are committing logical fallacies. Unless, of course, you are trying to commit another one - ahh yes, the "
strawman," where you mischaracterize an opponent's argument to make it easier to address.
Voluntarists do not think that "all regulation is bad," they think that regulation imposed by the state is bad. If you cannot wrap your head around the possibility of any regulatory/incentivary mechanisms other than state power derived from violence, perhaps it is good that you not bother to address the argument... but for real, dude, don't commit the very crime that you complained about just once sentence ago... BRL (big resounding LOL)
