Bitcoin is not a permissioned ledger.
Of course it is. Any non-fungible token where transactions aren't blinded and transaction validators are allowed to arbitrarly tamper with transactions is. It doesn't matter if there's a thousand transaction validators and only one of them blacklists you, the simple fact that all of them CAN blacklist you at any moment is what determines it's classification.
But in the case of bitcoin, the number of transaction validators is designed to centralize so much there will likely only ever be between 1 to 10 or so that actually matter at any given time. That extreme centralization characteristic allows RETARDEDLY EASY full spectrum control of it by governments and other (((cartels))) to use it as the ultimate dystopian cashless society slavery system such as Aaron Russo warned about.
