U lack a lot of insight about how the real world actually works and when change is and isnt possible. Ever heard of Hayek and his explanation that the powers that be would never allow a new truely hard currency of the people unless we sort or find a sly roundabout way to introduce it?
Well, storing big loads of easy to view CSAM is not that 🤣🤣
U have to admit the powers that are in control will gladly take the CSAM argument to make the use of bitcoin near impossible, which in turn makes bitcoi lose 99% of its audience instantly .
The full quote by Friedrich Hayek is,
"I don't believe we shall ever have a good money again before we take the thing out of the hands of government, that is, we can't take them violently out of the hands of government, all we can do is by some sly roundabout way introduce something they can't stop". Hayek said this in a 1984 interview, and the quote is often interpreted in the context of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, which many believe fulfill his prediction for a decentralized, unstoppable form of money.

A sly roundabout way is this: get paid for your work in bitcoin, get your projects on bitcoin and pay others in bitcoin for the work you need from them. Stop interacting with the state and its mixed-economy aka socialist bullshit; go through the agora as much you can. This will become more evident with time and is what I follow with my own example.
Bitcoin wasn't made by a state power to begin with, it was made by cypherpunks that wanted to dismantle its control over people. If people want the state to be there for them, then there's XRP.
There's no need to gatekeep bitcoin; its unstructured simplicity is its strength. I don't buy into the FUD and will not upgrade my node till this shitty fiasco proves to be a nothing burger. I expect this to happen within 6-8 months.
Let's see. I'll be here.
