RE: Fingerprints, Eye Scans Now Required To Buy Food In India, As Banks Cut Off Cryptocurrencies
I have a very nuanced perspective on this question. I know many of the early bitcoin adopters and devs, and have been following the cypherpunk movement since before bitcoin was a thing.
There have been crypto anarchists who have been pushing for an electronic tool that can be used for having undetected trade for a very long time, we need that tool, especially in the age of the internet and especially in areas of the world where people face wealth confiscation
there are evil forces in this movement too, and there are good forces
there is a difference between digital currency and crypto currency
some of the best research explainging this idea a bit better is from james corbett
John after listening to Corbett report I do understand that tools of every kind can be used based on the intent of the person. For me I have always understood this to be true. I operate based on facts that I can determine to be true.
Fact: BITCOIN is a corporation that is traded on the NYC exchange, and undeniably part of the system, which is morally depraved.
Fact: who ever provides access can decide not to at anytime.
Fact: While you may be the only one who can access your wallet, it is for certain that before such is provided one must be identified through, email, phone#, and I.D before access is granted.
Fact: That identification may or may not be for the purposes stated and terms of service can be changed.
Fact: Full disclosure is not possible seeing as human beings do not know everything that can possible occur and is why in a perfect world force cannot be used to insure a responsible party to a contract. Use of force by a third party is actually proof of invalid contract, seeing as a contract exist at the point where it is paid.
The truth is the electronic way of doing business has so many problems that Bitcoin can be used to solve. Hopefully people will learn to tell the difference between a real contract and the extortion that our courts represent? Society doesn't have a good track record in this in my opinion.
