Instead of hating something you should try to understand it first: > permanently lost because you forgot a password You don't have to encrypt your wallet, that's up to you. If you believe that not even knowing the password of an encrypted wallet you should be able to recover your bitcoins your problem is actually with cryptography in general. > the government cheerfully gained control of a large share Powerful entities have power, welcome to the real world. > the fact that you're greedy bastards huh? can you expand on this? > it intentionally promotes a counter-establishment treatise Nop, Bitcoin is a technology, and neither the paper nor the Bitcoin Foundation is "counter-establishment". Actually the last one is trying really hard to make Bitcoin "pro" establishment. Sorry I don't wanna be rude but your post is absurd.
