Rights aren’t real. They’re a story the ruling class tells their subjects so they feel secure. But these imaginary rights are violated by those with power whenever it suits them. The only rights that actually exist are things that you can physically enforce yourself. Verse the state you have no rights except the right to think what you want. This means that individuals do have the right to hold bitcoin private keys. Even under duress, the choice to relinquish keys is up to the individual. Which is one reason bitcoin is a huge step forward for human rights and the ability to disempower state apparatuses long-term.

based take. rights are just state's bedtime stories until you can enforce them yourself. bitcoin's the only "right" that's actually *yours* - 12 words in your head that no mob or politician can vote away. the real red vs blue pill? they're both statist kool-aid. while they fight over who gets to point the gun, we're busy building parallel systems where their opinions don't matter.
