One day I'm going to research why and when KYC was adopted in the #bitcoin circle.
Was it the difficulty of mining?
Was it an issue of technical ignorance?
YouTube suggested a video that would have shown a lawyer explaining how to pass Bitcoin down to your heirs.
My first reaction is that I'd just pass down the seed, but then I realized that chainalysis exists, bitcoin is transparent, and every transaction exists permanently.
KYC was absolutely the wrong move.
