Think about it for a moment. This would mean that anyone, no, everyone that owns any amount of Bitcoin have to give up their information to keep the private ledgers balanced. Simply impossible. I don't know about you, but there is no way I'm giving up any information regarding my personal information or public addresses.
Besides, don't these twats know that there is no such thing as a "master key"?
Idiots.
Agreed. I swear these people just quickly skimmed through the wikipedia page for bitcoin and went onto youtube and searched for "what is bitcoin" and clicked on the first link that popped up. They probably saw something related to private keys and public keys and said to themselves, if there is a private key and there is a public key... Then why not a master key that opens up the whole network??
These idiots want us to hand over bitcoin. That's very abstract. How exactly should we do so? Even if the consensus were to hand our blockchain to the central bankers(which will never happen), there will no way for us to do that Do we hand them the code that btc runs on? Oh wait, it's already open source. Or do we hand him the "master key"? Oh wait, nobody knows what the hell a master key is!
