European Union, are you okay?..
It seems someone has decided again that privacy = crime
🚫 Monero, Zcash, Dash — “threat to stability,” they say.
But we thought the threat to stability was inflation, taxes, and Netflix subscriptions for every household.
Legislator:
“We want to control transactions for your safety.”
Trader:
“Can we also take a shower under supervision while we're at it?”
Now seriously:
The EU is discussing a ban on private coins. The goal is supposedly to combat money laundering.
But in fact, this is a blow to financial freedom and personal anonymity.
Meme coins are thriving. Private coins — banned.
The crypto world has become a series with bad writers.
Conclusion:
If privacy is a crime,
then… I just wanted to send 10 coins to my mom.
