 EU outlawed math. Sigh. Fucking tools. Pardon my language, but these assholes... I have so many words to share with them. 
 Explained this exact concept to my friends yesterday. A ban on private wallets is essentially a ban on the generation of private keys. Private keys which are derived from series mathematic calculations.

Awesome video for reference ( similar but not exactly the generation of a private key ):

 Is there an article I can read? 
 The US outlawed cursive handwriting. Same thing, different poetry. 
 Words wouldn’t work with them… “They scared of math it brings their ass back to high school” 
 This conclusion is wrong afaik. Payments to service provider wallets have to be kycd. P2P transfers still legal. dyor

That said, they are crazy enough to get there at some point, just not yet.

 
 Fuck them.
