I sincerely hope that Bitcoin won't become a tool in the international politics. I myself reiterated it a few times that Bitcoin is negligible at worst and marginal at best, at least, for the present, but this alone still doesn't exclude the possibility of China manipulating Bitcoin this way or another. We already heard rumors about the Chinese authorities going to set up capital flow barriers preventing Bitcoin from leaving China. These rumors seem to have not been confirmed, but why would they even care if Bitcoin is thus insignificant? If transactions cannot be traced to the country of origin by any means possible (which I doubt), then it's fine, and we can safely forget about the Chinese miners discriminately raising fees as part of the future tariff wars...

But as I understand the matter, it is still possible to distinguish transactions by the wallet address of the source, right?


I ask you to refrain from making personal attacks in the future lest you get banned. I said nothing which could be construed as what you call a "racial mindset", let alone "selling" it. You may want to leave this thread
