Isn't 'solving' international payments messing with the US govt? If you bypass the swift system then they can no longer track international transactions and more importantly enforce sanctions.

- oblio 5y agoYou're probably working under the assumption that whatever replaces the US system is better. You have no way of knowing that and most US geopolitical alternatives are awful. Except for maybe the EU if you include it.
- 4ggr0 5y ago> that whatever replaces the US system I'm just generally opposed to a system being pushed by a single country. Don't care if that's the US, China, Russia or Nepal. It's not because I don't like the US, I just wish that we all would get to say how that system is supposed to work, instead of the US thinking it knows what's best for "us". Similar to how it's for whatever reason okay that the US has it's military bases littered all over the world. I've got nothing against y'all as people, but your government and military for sure grind my gears.
