Storing illegal data on other people’s computers forever is more valuable to some people than any monetary transaction is to most others. It seems that people overlook this because they don’t notice all the walls, both physical and digital, that are in place to isolate certain black markets from general markets.

Bitcoin currently has similar walls, but people don’t realize how important they are because Google refuses to show all the insane search results that can be returned for even the most innocent search terms. This could end with a “hide your Bitcoin node under your floorboards” era of Bitcoin. It’ll be SO FUN, and we’ll find out who the hardcore cypherpunks are.
