 Jack, you’ve built on and proliferated lightning. I’ve followed your progress as you’ve built Strike. What can be done to rebel with the knowledge that KYC doesn’t work? It only seeks to provide a central repository of pii, that if compromised, damages people’s lives, yet the company goes on. Banks knowingly launder money every day. KYC/AML uses legalese to create a monopoly on the movement of value throughout the world. What options do you have to build the product you WANT to build “global no kyc” vs the one you have permission to build?
