Oddbean new post about login | logout The IRS has been using AI with access to all your bank accounts without any kind of search warrant. Going after the little guys like they always do. https://v.nostr.build/fNIhW4TCBkBf2yGU.mp4
But let’s put our BTC in the banks too. 🤦♂️
Chain analysis probably all being done with AI now too. Trying to trace all the KYC coin out there.
ecash mint kyc jubilee wen?
This a tricky setup. With mints, you want to (really have to) trust the guardians…but that also creates a pressure point for the powers at be. Anon guardians would be a tough sell from a user stand point. Maybe web of trust can help alleviate that?
I agree with everything you’re saying here my thinking was a giant anonymous mint orgy at lasts 45 minutes and then I meant to shut down after everyone’s withdrawn but yeah trust would be required of course
Not probably
If is like that in America, I can only imagine what's happening in the EU...
Not a surprise, unfortunately. GM Ivan, happy to see you back and feeling good again
Is it because just by opening an account we give them permission
I do not think they have the right to look without the suspicion of a crime being committed. They would need a search warrant at that point, but in America now, there is no rights. The government does what it likes.
trust the government
We elect some of the dumbest shittist people and then complain about it. Look at Trump. He’s a walking rape machine racist retard and he’s on try number 3 from a party that elected Madison Cawthorne, George Santos, Lauren Bobert, Marjorie Taylor Green, I could go on and on.

What she's wearing on her neck tells me she secretly supports this.
Jim Jordan 100% supports this.
Good. Maybe they can streamline things a bit so I don’t have to manually do everything. So time consuming & my time is $$$.
You have now been caught breaking multiple tax laws you did not understand. No worries they won't enforce as long as you are an obesident slave to the state. Thank you have a nice day. However if you step out of line, straight to jail.
They haven’t met my lawyer yet. This next war is fought with lawyers. Get a good one. https://image.nostr.build/e1d4c69d5df305c8cf68ad80284410d35d21f6cd857624ccfc3ab41336ee9fb6.jpg
Patriot Act
Somehow they keep renewing that shitty bill.
Not somehow. They are pushing it harder and harder. I watched the committee hearing on the Trump assassination attempt and Lyndsays Grahams only concern to make cryptography illegal. Yes you read that right. He had no questions other than “why can’t we hack his phone, and why to Americans have the right to encrypt their phones so the government can’t hack them”. Elizabeth Warren has also said things like this.
Earn It Act sponsored by Graham Lawful Access to Encrypted Data Act sponsored by Graham
It actually wasn’t renewed in 2019. But different bills have filled in the holes. They are pushing had to ban encryption. Bitcoin is literally encryption. Their bills say that having encrypted data can make you guilty of a crime if you do not allow you access to your encrypted data. So they could accuse you of something like child pron and ask you hand over your passwords. If you don’t it’s an admission of guilt and you’re guilty.
That sounds terrible and something that they would need some type of 9/11 digital crisis to be able to pass. They definitely want to but I see it being easier to pass in Europe
They’ve tried three times since 2020 to find the right verbiage
You have one right and it is to pay taxes ... whether with sweat or blood.
The real mob
Sadly 95%+ people are buying KYC Bitcoin.
unfortunately true , I have to eat the extra expense and don't have it as convenient as others may have but I'm thinking 20 + years down the road .. maybe it might be worth something..
