There's no massaging. The potentially illegality of many cryptoasset platforms has always been clear to everyone who wasn't in denial. They're trying to race ahead of law enforcement. Kind-of like Uber, but the SEC is a lot harder to plow through than local traffic enforcement.
I, for one, welcome our PonziCoin-banning overlords.
- CryptoPunk 9y ago>>I, for one, welcome our PonziCoin-banning overlords. That's a pretty totalitarian outlook. You're not content with not using cryptocurrency yourself. You want to prevent everyone else, with punitive measures, from using it too.
- ianai 9y agoAnd bidding all gaming GPUs up isn’t punitive?
- CryptoPunk 9y agoOf course not. Two parties coming to an agreement in a free market to trade currency for a GPU is not a violation of a third party's right to buy that GPU. Putting two people behind bars because they traded some 1s and 0s that happen to be valued by some set of people is a flagrant violation of rights.
- JeremyBanks 9y agoWhich rights?
- CryptoPunk 9y agoMy right for me to not have you interfere with and restrict my private interactions. My right to privacy, in keeping the 1s and 0s to myself, and free speech, to publish any series of 1s and 0s I want.
