       I remember shaking my head at how gullible and naive people can be.

       Furthermore, onchain bitcoin can NEVER be private (as Bitcoin exists today).Privacy is the selective revealing of information according to one's wishes, and this is not possible in Bitcoin mainnet: source, destination, asset type (BTC) and amounts are ALWAYS visible.People - even people who should know better - routinely conflate PRIVACY with ANONYMITY.However, you can never really be anonymous in Bitcoin mainnet either, because addresses are visible.You can, at best, achieve weak pseudonymity. That is what coinjoins do, and that is why they easily get your account flagged and banned: they reset pseudonymity, but do (and could not do) nothing for PRIVACY, which is how automated systems flag your transaction.Simple enough - one would think!

       In all honesty it was just ignorance borne of stupidity that a rogue state and enemy of the regime that oversees the stablecoin they chose to conduct their business with would use an asset that has a built-in freeze function.I mean, good God, why do people think the freeze function is there?! if not for cases like this, then what for?Note I am not saying I agree or disagree. I am just stating the facts.And yeah, cool story with using Bitcoin for it, nothing like leaving an eternal transparent trail of your defiance against the buffest global hegemon for them to troll through for the rest of eternity to sleep soundly at night.You maxi types should have learned something from the Canadian truck fiasco, but alas, this is what ideology does to people.#monero fixes this, or bitcoin one day if it actually gets default privacy.

       I've written extensively about that in the past; here is a recent example:

       Always goes back to NGU with those zealot maxis, doesn't it?newsflash, bozo: monero users can and do hold bitcoin too.this "Cypherpunk" is one giant walking projection: he's a zealot, literally cannot imagine others not being zealots too.Can you imagine it? after all the dumb shit he's said, going back now and admitting "damn, I was a dunce cultist" - ain't happening, that giant ego won't allow it.One day, if #monero overtakes bitcoin in market cap, he'll be coming up with some crazy new excuse as to why he was right all long.What a bore.

       it depends on how you define sovereign.the reasons you listed against bitcoin actually work in your favor from the point of view of wealth accumulation.if you're very poor, but can have transactional privacy, are you truly sovereign?conversely, if you're filthy rich but have zero privacy and operate under a system that trends towards totalitarian control because it's transparent, are you truly sovereign?you need both, I would argue. ideally that would be one asset, but right now (albeit less clear over the last year, monero has actually completely destroyed bitcoin in terms of capital appreciation) it isn't.so why not ride both waves and get the best of both worlds?

       bitcoin never really was cypherpunk money.it's right there since the beginning, words to the tune of "if it's not private and anonymous, don't trust it, this is not the digital cash we (cypherpunks) envision".don't get me wrong, it was a great invention and it changed the game. but it didn't go far enough - which is why the legacy system eventually warmed up to it; the lack of privacy makes it controllable.but even without the privacy, at least we have something which can't be inflated away. it's a win in my book, but at considerable cost: financial surveillance became even more normalized because of the bitcoins and solanas and ethereums and dogecoins of this world.now, more and more people realize the situation is not tenable, and that we need privacy onchain (.. yeah, no shit).
