- AndrewKemendo 8y agoQuit and start over, or move. That's why people migrate between countries or quit jobs.
- marssaxman 8y agoAh, if only it were that simple.
- AndrewKemendo 8y agoNo need to be glib. The kinds of situations that are being discussed as the best for blockchain are literally the most intractable - hence why I said it was not a technology solution. If you're in a situation where cryptocurrency is the best solution for currency, then you're probably in a lawless wasteland with abjectly destructive governance systems. Seems like in that circumstance moving is the right answer.
- marssaxman 8y agoI'm not being glib, I'm observing that the global system of passports and visa controls makes "moving" nearly impossible. I nearly pulled it off just over twenty years ago, but I failed, and now I'm permanently stuck back "home". Cryptocurrencies won't help, they're just another way to do capitalism.
