In other words, all are welcome here in bitcoinlandia (not that any of us can stop "them" or "the others"), even if you are retarded and even if you are trying to impose your values and beliefs on bitcoin or trying to "destroy it" in one way or another.... Maybe you will get recked or run off in an emotional outburst (aka rage quit) when you perceive that bitcoin is not working for the values/beliefs of ur lil selfie.. blah blah blah.. and maybe bitcoin is going to say.. who cares.. go fuck ur lil selfie with a 36 foot metal rod, if you believe that bitcoin is ONLY x, y and z.. blah blah blah.
Right!
Bitcoin is definitely good for money laundering, buying drugs and making all sorts of “illegal” purchases, funding organizations that get shut down by the likes of visa and PayPal, keeping any government from freezing or confiscating your accounts, leaving totalitarian countries that restrict you from taking your wealth out of the country..
Make all the laws you want.. You can’t stop Bitcoin or stop anyone from doing whatever they choose with it..
Bitcoin still works perfectly for the anarchic uses it was intended for..
Hilarious to see “bitcoiner” lefties get their panties twisted about tax evasion.. lol
Bitcoin works not so great for authoritarians/socialists/leftists..
It seems that I agree with everything you said, except your suggestion that bitcoin does not work for lefties ... or for variants of statists.
I also have a bit of trouble with the strength of your assertion that there is nothing that governments can do about bitcoin blah blah blah... To be clear, I do not disagree with the sentiment that bitcoin places obstacles in terms of what governments might be able to reasonably do or try to do, but governments do not likely become impotent because of bitcoin.
I am NOT proclaiming to be any kind of expert or anything like that because I am just a regular peep with my right and wrong ideas, and I believe that we can try to attempt to think about these kinds of matters in less all or nothing terms in the sense that bitcoin exists and it creates a whole bunch of incentives that are likely evolving with the passage of time and the increases in network effects, so in that regard, there has been back and forth with bitcoin and there is likely going to continue to be back and forth with bitcoin - whether we are referring to governments, institutions (such as status quo financial institutions) and/or individuals (such as rich peeps who have traditionally manipulated various systems more than poor peeps).
Many of us who have been investing into bitcoin (and apparently including you, eddie13) recognize that in a variety of ways, bitcoin has already won, and some things that governments, institutions and individuals were able to do in order to stifle or stop bitcoin have become much more difficult (if not impossible to attempt to do), and I am not even saying that there might not be some pretty damned intensive battles against bitcoin and attempted attacks from within, and it does seem quite unlikely that any of them are going to be successful (and probably a pretty straight forward reason that a lot of us continue to be bullish about bitcoin's future prospects), and none of us are sorcerers, exactly (even though there may well be a lot of wannabe sorcerers amongst us), so the way forward, could have a lot of challenges and even a decent amount of physical violence (which is one of the favorite tools of someone who perceive themselves to be running out of options whether state, institutions or individuals), and alternatively (which seems to be a kind of picture that you are painting eddie13), the transition could end up playing out way more non-violently than within our historical past when it comes to threats to the status quo.
