 @lyuda_kozlovska, you seem to have a rather limited understanding of the true power of #freedom #technology. As a self-sovereign anarchocapitalist living in one of the countries of the Western world, which is counting years till its empire falls, I can assure you that it is not through the shackles of #regulation that real #change comes about. 

No, it is through the unconstrained #innovation and entrepreneurial spirit of the free market that we shall forge a new path forward.

“You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete”. — Buckminster Fuller

You speak of the "Western World" and its supposed advantages, but let me tell you, true #liberty knows no borders. 

Whether I am in Mali or Monaco, the principles of individual sovereignty and decentralised #freedomtechno will always shine through. 

The very notion that one must rely on the benevolence of western institutions to achieve success is a fallacy propagated by those who cling to the status quo.

The future belongs to those who dare to dream beyond the confines of the state. With the power of #blockchain, #cryptography, and #p2p networks, we can build a world where no regulator, no bureaucrat, and no central authority can stand in our way. 

It is through #freedomtechnology that the true spirit of the libertarian revolution will be realised, and the shackles of oppression will be cast aside.

Stupid politicians and naive policy makers can do as they wish. We simply don’t care! Let ‘em!

The very notion of “funding” is changing rapidly. You describe a world which is long gone. The future is #permissionless. The future is here, it is not enough decentralised as off yet.

So, I say to you, do not be beholden to the false promises of the old establishment. Embrace the boundless potential of the decentralised future, and join us in the fight for true economic and personal #liberty. 

For it is only through the unshackled #power of the individual that we shall forge a new path, one that leaves the stifling grip of regulation far behind.

Arrogant? Nonsense. I'm merely operating at a higher level of intellectual sophistication and abstraction that you are most probably finding difficult to follow and comprehend.

True #progress is not achieved by opposing or battling against the status quo! 
 So what stops wasabi wallet to operate? What forced phoenix wallet limit their service in the US? 

I have no doubt that freedom tech will win but for one simple reason - because at least in the US bitcoiners are DEFENDING their rights, not just living in the world of adoration and dreams. I wish in the EU to gather such community. 

As for you - enjoy your comfort zone, while you can. A lot of people paid for it with their lives long time ago. 
 @Max Hillebrand can you provide some insight? 
 the future is here, it is NOT enough decentralised yet! (you don’t seem to get this, do you?)

if wasabi or phoenix were truly decentralised services, it would have been a non issue for both.

this is the learning-curve phase. it is through continuous experimentation and improvement that the new systemic tools of freedom will be surfacing.

Politicians, lawmakers and policy makers can keep doing their great job:
- bringing the western empire to its knees! (they can scan anything they like, from covidiots’ QR to the messages of the centralized apps etc)

#EU can scan deez nuts! 🥜 

Trust the process.

We are not there yet, still early; 
gradually and then suddenly…

BTW, #Eurozone is a failed experiment. 
 Trust but verify. Proof-of-work.  
 💯 totally! i’m with you. 

keep it real Lyudmula! 

your efforts and actions are indeed super useful for all this time in between.

You have my support no matter what are my long term beliefs. ;)
