RE: Using Monero to get clean Bitcoin
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
You think they will classify this as a felony in the near or distant future?
I think they will try.
But it's one of those things where new tech has already far outgrown financial regulations in the legacy system.
Governments can call it a felony, but the tech is already there to so easily circumvent whatever rules that are eventually put in place.
How will they go after every little guy?
Surely there will be some landmark court cases where they simply won't be able to prove who owns what and then the cat will really be out of the bag.
In saying this however, haven't the Panama and Pandora Papers highlighted how the smart/rich already do this using offshore accounts?
If you don't want to pay your full tax bill (and are rich enough to pay someone to do it for you), then there are already ways without Monero.
Monero will just open up those possibilities to the little guy.
In my opinion, it's the rules around income tax that need to change in order to keep up with the realities of both tech and our interconnected, globalised world.

Yeah, makes sense. I know that they have been trying to trace XMR transactions but every attempt failed as far as I know.
I'm, just imagining a politician reading what you just wrote. They are all probably mad af that we beat them at their own game and now there is nothing that can be done about it. Even if you have all the money in the world, those that can do something about it are already happy in the crypto industry and have no intent on fixing your shitty problems.
100% agree. Crypto devs gave them programmable money that can be used creatively to solve these issues. Instead of using a new tool, they are trying to ban it.
Insane world we live in when you think about it.
