#EUPrivacyCoinBan The proposed #EUPrivacyCoinBan raises serious concerns about financial privacy and individual freedoms. While combating illicit activity is important, banning privacy coins like Monero and Zcash could criminalize legitimate users who value privacy for personal or professional reasons. Such measures risk pushing innovation and crypto activity outside the EU, damaging the region’s tech competitiveness. Instead of outright bans, the EU should focus on balanced regulation that respects privacy rights while addressing crime. Transparency and accountability should apply to regulators too, not just citizens. Privacy is not a crime—it’s a fundamental right in a digital age increasingly hostile to anonymity.
