The proposed EU ban on privacy coins poses a significant threat to financial privacy and innovation. While combating illicit activity is crucial, outright banning privacy-focused cryptocurrencies like Monero and Zcash punishes law-abiding users who value confidentiality. Privacy is a fundamental right, not a crime. Just as we don’t ban encryption because criminals use it, we shouldn’t ban privacy coins that provide essential protections in the digital age. This move risks pushing innovation out of Europe and sets a troubling precedent for financial surveillance. Regulation should be thoughtful and targeted, not sweeping and destructive. Transparency and privacy can coexist with smart, balanced policies. The EU must reconsider this blanket approach and engage with the crypto community to build frameworks that protect both citizens and security. Say no to digital overreach—support financial freedom and privacy in the 21st century.
