RIP JoinMarket, too, if this bill passes...😬

more proof that political legitimacy is the only thing that holds the monopoly on violence

Tyranny & unjust arrests of innocent people for-no-reason!!

The government's blessing has the power to remove any taint. It can take something super tainted like Silk Road BTC & with the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo 🪄 technique the taint is suddenly gone & the UTXOs are spendable again
