Your story is an anecdote, and an interesting one, but not sure if your conclusions are valid. Crypto is used in China for subverting government oversight, and they are far more advanced than Bosnia at digital control.
- aaaaaaaaata 4y agoNot always oversight, but for subverting government controls — note that these are very different.
- colordrops 4y agoWhat's the difference?
- NikolaNovak 4y agoAbsolutely and fair point: My story is indeed an anecdote; but it was not strictly meant to address the question of whether Crypto is useful or not in escaping government oversight, but the specific hypothesis in the post I replied to: "Those who haven't personally experienced #1 (such as world superpowers, the wealthy/"elite") seem not to be able to grasp the benefits. " As such, I wanted to provide a counter-point/perspective, anecdotal as it may be.
- soco 4y agoAnd what do you think, they are successful because the crypto schemes are so powerful, or because the CCP is letting them go with it?
