> BitCoin isn't a "threat" to the money issuance monopoly

You are mistaken. Look at what was done to Liberty Dollar.

Which had nothing to do with it being a real threat to the USD - firstly because it was never a real threat to the dollar, and secondly because it was demonstrably used for criminal transactions.

> it was demonstrably used for criminal transactions.

I'm sure you have proof of this.

Right, everyone using LR was using it for 100% legit transactions, no money laundering of any sort. Mhmm.

We had a mistake in communication. I thought you were referencing the Liberty Dollar topic I had raised.

I have no issues with people moving their money around as they see fit. Why not outlaw cash if "money laundering" is a concern?
