Bitcoin’s greatest achievement has been making the existing payments system, which is an unholy garbage fire, look reasonable

You cannot prevent digital assets from being copied, you cannot prevent people from abusing a peer-to-peer DRM system, anything that interfaces with reality becomes easier with centralized intermediaries and more complicated without

Just because a technological solution is interesting doesn’t mean it’s good for literally anything you nitwits

You have arbitrary tokens of value that function as speculative vehicles tied to sovereign currency, those are not meaningful “digital assets” with any informational value, there is nothing meaningful to “copy”https://twitter.com/thetafferboy/status/969735500343988227 …

You implicitly assume governments are always just. Never in history did they have power to remote freeze your money and monitor everything you buy. We have no idea what less democratic future regimes will do with that power. Imagine if Germans were able to do that back in the 40s

For your own profession: keep in mind you can’t buy your sources a drink without a government seeing it. You can’t even take a train to meet them because those payments - and their corresponding trips - are tracked too.
