A wonderfully written and engaging post, my friend but I have to disagree with you strongly. I must admit to reading your words with a certain suspicion since you must admit that you stand to gain personally from the future you propose. I have to keep this in mind.

It certainly sounds good on the surface but the technology that you say will set us free could, in my view, be used to further enslave us. I believe that blockchain technology and government are more synonymous than most can see and given time, I feel this will become more evident.

I sincerely hope I am wrong because you are most definitely right when you speak of the crimes and abuses of power by government, from which up until now, we have been afforded a small measure of secrecy in our transactions by having the ability to carry them out in untraceable, unrecorded cash which, under your proposal would surely be a thing of the past.

A very interesting post, despite my disagreement with your point of view.

Hope your day is going well.
