> Congress shall make no law ... prohibiting ... the right of the people peaceably to assemble
That's from the first amendment. How is Bitcoin any different than religion in this framing? Bitcoin is functionally equivalent to a peaceful gathering where people write characters on paper in order to agree on something.
> Freedom of religion isn't a thing because we care about letting people believe in truths, it's a thing because without it, millions of people start killing eachother.
This is very silly. What if people start killing each other because they are sick of being financially controlled puppets? Is that the reason we should allow things?
- CRConrad 5y agoYeah, OK, you're right. Thank you for officially confessing that Bitcoin — and, by extension, all the other crypto"currency" online Ponzi schemes too — are not, in fact, currencies at all, but cults.
