where did he say this? I've tried looking though his medium posts but there was too much ranting & too little substance. & I don't think bitcoin should be trying to please US gov.
LOL, you are using too strong the words. He is just keeping bitcoin legal, i.e. users out of trouble with the law.
So how long until cross border bitcoin transactions require declaration? Build a capital gains tax reporter into the protocol? Txs worth more than $10k require valid gov id?
