~ This is not what Satoshi wanted/meant when he created Bitcoin right?

Why do you say so?
Satoshi meant to create:
- "A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash" - Done
- no third party involved in transactions - Done
- impossibility of tampering/double spending - Done
Bitcoin is doing great, and I think Satoshi would be proud of its performance.
What governments are trying to do and what exchanges are requiring is the consequence of the level of adoption Satoshi couldn't even dream of at the time of writing the whitepaper.
(Sorry, didn't mean to sound so snippy. It was just my opinion. I know, I can be wrong)
