Is BTC being promoted by US govt so CIA can hire random undercovers to SWAT people and use plausible deniability from the public transaction ledger to claim a motive?

>>60579105 (OP)
Bitcoin was created to manufacture consent by greed for total financial surveillance.

>>60579105 (OP)
No, it is promoted by Saylor and a bunch of new millionaire lobbyists, old insiders called: old Bitcoiner. You will easily recognize them because they are as haughty as the boomers they try to imitate (poor man's version) and only know how to say that you have to buy BTC even when it will not bring anything to investors to inflate their pockets. For the moment this asset seems to be widely adopted but it is temporary, it will end up rejected and will never recover. Don't be paranoid, it is just a huge economic idiocy.

OP here. Both replies I got so far are fucking retarded. Can someone with a brain please have a look at the OP and weigh in?

>>60579105 (OP)
it is promoted because those who promote it are very greedy and they want to get wealthier, promoting it for another reason would be retarded considering the privacy offered by bitcoin and its constant push for more privacy

>>60579235
don't be paranoid about what exactly?

>>60579226
money was already digital long before bitcoin, retarded post

Wrong. Ignores the point entirely. Replies to the other 2 morons are reasonable though.

>>60579503
Yes, I know. But I have had BTC since 2011 and want some intelligent commentary on my concerns in the OP from someone who isn't an Indian technocumball cockroach or schizophrenic millenial.

>>60579801
Isn't doesn't really matter if it's being promoted by them. Ask yourself if it can be (has been) used in that way? Will it be used in that way in the future, will anything in the future stop it from being used like that?

>>60579807
Good answer thanks. Nothing will stop it from being used like that.
You made a typo though. Ditch the iPhone.

>>60579226
This. Can’t people see that every portion of their lives are being watched more and more in every aspect. Well crypto is financial surveillance and much much more.

>>60579813
Nothing changed with BTC though in that regard.

>>60579105 (OP)
The year is 2025. Governments don't need to justify anything if they want to fuck you hard.
So the best approach is prevention. Be unnoticeable.

BTC is but a trial run, a test, of the future global financial system.
Cash will go and every transaction will be done via your handheld device.
The gubmint will control the Blockchain or whatever it will be at this time, ensuring that they get their cut ie tax every time.

>>60579824
Stupid ass. Governments comprise people and nothing else. We just live in a world with a lot of people and very well-solved logistical problems for transporting assassins around for Jews. It's not any different from any other period qualitatively, just riskier quantitatively in several annoying metrics.

>>60579862
First intelligent reply in the thread

>>60579801
if it isn't greed to enrich themselves, then it's because they realized they can't do anything about it, and they have a choice to either reject it and lose everything, or accept it and at least retain some power

Possibly the most unbearable, pompous faggot ass OP I ever seen in my decade plus of visiting 4chan.

theres no reason for them to cause a spectacle. if you want to frame someone as the feds, you can just plant a kilo of coke or put contraband on a compromised computer.

There were good posts from people in the thread who do not fall into those categories. Hope my thread provided you joy and delight.

>>60580253
yeah there was one good post that is of value to nobody because anyone who has been in crypto for more than 2 months knows what monero is and why its the only thing you should use if you actually care about privacy.

On this, XMR does not solve this problem because the shadow economy is closer to saturation by mcap of XMR than BTC is. If you are holding fuckloads of XMR you are getting devalued versus those who hold BTC, and if you are worth nothing you really don't have anything to worry about anyway, you're just poor. You can always wait for BTC slowdown (late in your life) and/or transact securely in XMR, but you'd have to be a moron to baghold a gigantic sack of XMR for any time at all.

>>60580572
>getting devalued
In what? Tether? US FiatCoin?

Network effects in technology are extremely strong. Generally, the first technology that is "good enough" and achieves network effects develops a wide moat that prevents competitors from actually mounting a strong attempt at gaining market share.

Bitcoin is being intentionally propped up by the government as an attempt to prevent network effects from accruing to a privacy coin (essentially, Monero).

If network effects were achieved in a privacy coin, it would be a legitimate challenge to the central banking system and the ability of the United States empire to project power. It would also prevent government agencies from acquiring the new powers of financial surveillance that public blockchains provide. Attempting to astroturf Bitcoin as the "one and true digital currency" is a matter of national security compared to privacy coin alternatives.

>shadow economy is closer to saturation by mcap of XMR than BTC is.
This makes no sense.
$6 billion mcap in a $10 trillion economy (black market) seems a lot larger of a gap than a $2 trillion mcap in a $100 trillion economy (global m2)

>>60579105 (OP)
Bitcoin is CIA coin. Monero is what bitcoin was supposed to be. An actually anonymous p2p payment network. Bitcoin is surveillance money that requires scaling into centralized L2s to be remotely useful or broadly used. It is built for this trojan horse centralization.

>>60581763
You are mistaking iterations for technologies. Bitcoin is not even good enough. How is dial up doing? How is Netscape? Or Limewire? Or Zune? Or Windows Media Player? Or Kazaa? Or Morpheus? Or...

>>60583207
you don't understand tradeoffs, censorship resistance, the importance of node validation, and other basic concepts

>>60583209
in the case of bitcoin, it actually is, but see above

>>60579452
Replacing one surveillance system with another, shilling it as the counter culture solution, that's very disingenuous. Reminds me of a certain people.

I can't, but the government and big personal profiling agencies can.
That's the trick: Looks "anonymous" to plebs, but is fully transparent by design.

claiming something isn't private because it is less private than a system so private that it creates issues about supply auditability is almost mental illness
