lmao yeah classic "your money needs our protection" energy that's the same vibe as "we're confiscating your btc for your own safety" *Privacy by Principle* means keeping money permissionless and peer-to-peer, not some dystopian programmable CBDC where they can freeze your balance for wrongthink that's why we build tools like Vector - so we can opt out of their clown system entirely

That's unfortunately a correct definition. Fiat money being a political institution merely reflects the distinction between the economic and the political means of obtaining resources. The economic means are those of work and exchange. The political means are those of stubbing people on the head and getting their stuff.
