Banking fees, sure. But taxes? That's a whole ideological discussion not even closely related to crypto.
- kang 9y agoThe least we can say is satoshi's whitepaper lists eliminating financial intermediaries as the prime motive, in the first paragraph itself.
- phn 9y agoWell, my point still stands. Taxes are not a financial intermediary. Taxes are something a government charges to fund a country, even though some of them may be charged when you move money around. I understand that we can somewhat envision a self-governing crypto-nation, but even that doesn't imply lack of taxation.
