Like I said earlier in this…

Like I said earlier in this chain I truly respect the privacy ethos on the infosec coiners. But I also have to look at “who benefits the most from this rhetoric?” Which is obviously the privacy coin holders who would love to benefit off of Bitcoin’s downfall. I guess I’m just cynical in a different regard.

That said, what you’re saying is not entirely baseless shit can get pretty whacky in the next 10-20 years as governments come to terms with losing printing power of currency which is why we’re having this discussion. I think everyone wants to improve Bitcoins privacy and find a quick solution like “this coin does this!”. L2s are going to improve, and users aren’t going to know the difference between kyc/nonkyc in 20 years bc it won’t matter.
