That would be poetic !

This is what they will do to suppress you. Until you learn how to skip around the system, buy Bitcoin, convert fiat to crypto OTC, buy gift cards, buy #Sats and #Zaps and learn to work your way around while standing in your Truth. Because the Truth is expensive. If we personally knew her, we'd help her do just that ✊🧡 We don't see a lot of it on #Nostr yet, too full of white supremacists and MAGAs, but those times are neigh. You cannot stop them. They will be here soon 🌊🌊🌊🌊 #Resistance #Revolution #Sovereignty #Bitcoin #Decentralize #EatTheRich #EndTheOligarchy nostr:nevent1qqszju5pn2f3n8hq040p8thudt23tgwnudn3whgmgx4nugnffks6lucpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgq3qjmq8tlhf28r3832zs8pwx8y9d60gqzdk7f4zlgznrquxmgtjxklqxpqqqqqqz6khtlh

#Monero fixes this. Send her #Bitcoin and you are just as fucked.

Still cashing out without a bank account is quite challenging. If we keep hodling and Bitcoin does not become a true mean of exchange, they win anyway. If BTC stays just store of value we fail, exactly for this reason. Imagine buying stuff today with Bitcoin only in a country with no or low adoption. Almost impossible. Services like Bitrefill may help but are still centralized. P2P exchange in person? not easy when all the eyes are on you and everybody helping you risks fines and jail. Lightning adoption? Still not enough… We probably need to orange pill more businesses to accept BTC payments. Saying BTC is the solution is too simple, we are not there yet. Cashing out without a bank account is still too fragile today.

Right, but I have no doubts that she would approve doing the same thing to others if she could. She's a "civil servant", meaning that she always got paid by states one way or the other. This time she just fell victim of the same state dynamics that supported her (at our own expense of course).

You'd be surprised how practically possible it is to live without bank accounts in certain parts of Latin America (and not only), if you're pragmatic about it. Bitrefill, debit cards you can charge, tons of exchange places that accept both bitcoin and (much much more) usdt, and most important of all: countries where cash transactions remain the norm. A huge reason it seems so bad in much of Europe is because cash is slowly being softbanned.

For those interested in the case of #Francesca #Albanese in particular: https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/who-francesca-albanese-and-why-us-sanctioning-her In this article it is explained, why she is sanctioned. https://www.ohchr.org/sites/default/files/documents/hrbodies/hrcouncil/sessions-regular/session59/advance-version/a-hrc-59-23-aev.pdf And this is the paper she wrote to be sanctioned for. When we consider the sanctions against her a unjust measure, we should probably worship her work and make sure we know what findings she wrote down. Since her findings in this paper seem to be why the US government sanctions her. I invite everyone who is interested to download and read the article.

Sure, but then you force a person to flee their country. You impact lives, families… not as easy at it seems. We cannot settle on the status quo. We need to keep fighting. This is not enough. Real world experience also in countries like El Salvador shows that living on a bitcoin standard is still a dream.

This is a very weak argument without any proof. You are just estimating, what she might would to, without proofing this intentions. This is destructive to argue like this. Good behavior should be accepted while bad behavior should be blamed in my opinion. Potential behavior is a behavior that can not be proofed and therefore does not count.

Bitrefill: could be shut down, forced to KYC. Debit cards: 99% KYC, 1% at risk to be shut down with your money on it Places accepting bitcoin: as said, not many, unless willing to relocate, but mixed feedbacks from those who tried. Cash: you need to have a job where you can earn cash in an economical world fighting it like hell. IMHO the lever is increasing the number of places accepting bitcoin and people spending bitcoin. This is in our hands. All the other ways out will be too fragile.

I've lived in El Salvador for 3 years, mostly on bitcoin. It's not just a dream. To me the actual unrealistic thing is to try to push bitcoin adoption in jurisdictions where there is very little motivation. You have to "read the room", so to speak.

Maybe you haven't listened to her talking on Italian tv. I don't care if she said the truth about Gaza. She is a commie and I learned the hard way what commies do: use state power against people. It is not a "potential behavior", it's what they always do, in Canada, UK, Italy, China or wherever people like her have the power to do it.

Also accepting the status quo is risky. What if the IMF crushes down on El Salvador (like they are doing apparently). I do not want to live a life escaping these guys jumping from country to country. We need to stand up and fight everywhere in the world for adoption. They need to fear us not viceversa.

Bring up proof please. What you are doing is not really helping me to trust. When you attack someone and I argue, that there needs to be proof, it does not improve your argument, when you go on attacking without proofing your point.

Pointless chat. There can't be any "proof" other than logic. People like her are parasites and will do whatever they can to impose their will to survive. She is basically a propaganda puppet: the ones she is blasting are no different from her. They claim to be "the good ones" but they are not and it showed a few years ago when people like her were willing to kill anyone in the name of "public health".

Right, there's no total solution in jumping jurisdictions. It can't work for more than a small minority. I'm more just saying that in some scenarios, you can't expect much in terms of adoption at the level of everyday life. Progress tends to occur at the edges.
