Canada literally just froze bank accounts without due process, and the West did the same effective thing at a country-level scale against Russia. I don't blame

Canada literally just froze bank accounts without due process, and the West did the same effective thing at a country-level scale against Russia.
I don't blame people who were skeptical of the ideas in the beginning, but as BTC sits at $40k, with entire countries adopting it as legal tender, with ~15% inflation in the US, and with financial war (civil and internal) breaking out at increasing scope and scale, it boggles the mind people can still write such dismissive takes without at least pausing for a moment to consider if they've made an error.
The development of trustless globally agreed upon ledgers is as big of a development as the printing press and gunpowder, and it's fundamentally tragic that smart people are so wrapped up in cynicism they're still determined to ignore it and not help direct it in a positive direction.
