 Somebody asks, what are your thoughts on the US Senate bill, S-1241, to criminalize concealed ownership of Bitcoin? I have read the language of the bill. First of all, in order for this to become law, it has to be considered by the Senate, and then the House and Reconciled Committee, if there are two different versions, that it has to be voted by both House and Senate. Then it has to be signed by the President or included in another bill. Then it has to translate into regulatory rules for agencies. Then the government and the regulatory agencies get sued, and then the courts get to interpret the latitude that this bill has to actually criminalize this behavior. There is a very long road, and a lot of things can change. Over the years, we have seen many people freak out about proposed language for proposed bills in one of the two houses that will do XYZ. It takes a long time for that to actually get to affecting Bitcoin holders. What the Senate bill, S-1241, does is it has some language that extends some of the requirements for money laundering and controls for terrorist financing, or counter-terrorist financing, and KYC extends some of those explicitly to organizations that manage digital currencies. That includes exchange and things like that. It also extends some of the money laundering laws that already exist, in terms of structuring and concealing transactions, to the use of digital currencies. This may make it illegal to run a mixer in the United States, for example, a point tumbler, as it is known, in May. Who knows where this goes? Who knows how far it goes, and who knows what comes out once it is challenged in court? These things take a long time. I am not particularly worried. This doesn't really criminalize concealed ownership to Bitcoin. It criminalizes certain activities that indicate concealed ownership of Bitcoin. For example, if you have an obligation to report for all the reasons that you failed to do so, or if you are using a tumbler or an exchange in a way that is violating anti-money laundering. The résistance asks, if having Bitcoin is criminalized in your country, will you continue to publicly advocate for it? How best to prepare for this possibility? If simply owning Bitcoin was criminalized in the United States, which is where I spend some of my time nowadays. I am not affiliated with one country, and if you are, that is the first of your problems. If it was criminalized, simply the ownership was criminalized. That would tell me one thing, I no longer live in a country where there is respect for individual rights. There is absolutely no logical reason why. Simply the ownership of numbers, digital keys, and control over a digital currency, without any relationship to committing an actual crime against anybody else. If that was criminalized, I would consider that criminalization of speech, criminalization of association, criminalization of expression, and criminalization of political affiliation. Those would, in my mind, violate the fundamental tenets of liberty. I would use my Bitcoin to purchase the first and most easily accessible airfare to get the fuck out of that hellhole. Not everybody can do that, but if your country criminalizes simply the possession of numbers, and the means you use to express yourself and associate yourself with other political organizations, you do not live in a free country. You are already quite far down the slippery slide, and you should maybe exit before things get really difficult. The second part of the question is, how to best prepare for this possibility? Be prepared to travel, have a valid passport, keep a clean record, be ready to exit, even when others are mocking you for being paranoid.
