This is just more evidence that my theory on why Bitcoin was developed, may actually hold water.
It was never about the GFC, failing banks or some crazy libertarian dream. It was all because someone was upset that the "million dollar bank transfer codes (or the two keys geographically separated that have to be turned at the same time, or the special secret crypto laptop in the zero halliburton that can transfer billions instantly and untracably)" trope from all those crime films was complete bullshit, and that in reality most money is protected by horrifyingly thick layers of mediocre bureaucracy and somebody wanted to be the mahatma gandhi of making those sorts of situations actually plausible in the real world.
