I remember years ago there was an EU project to require every user to identify themselves to access online social networks that could include forums, and theymos said something like that he was not going to pay any attention if a "Bolshevik" EU requirement came for that.
You mean this statement:
I intend to ignore all stupidity coming out of the EUSSR?
In view of what's happened recently, I am not so sure what he would do now if such a requirement came, especially from the USA.
You can't really expect theymos to break the law. This comes to mind:
Maybe Bitcoin will be banned in the US someday, and then I'll have to either shut down bitcointalk.org or find a way of moving it to some remaining territory of freedom in the world. That's the problem with centralized forums. I wish that more work was being done on creating decentralized, uncensorable, but also usable forums. I would love nothing more than to be able to shut down bitcointalk.org due to some decentralized solution making it obsolete. Find me a 501(c)(3) nonprofit working on this, and I'll donate to it.
it is federal law and is a felony to receive 10000 usd worth of any crypto without reporting full kyc to the feds.
That sounds like an impossible law to follow. You have a Bitcoin address in your profile.
Anyone can send you $15000, and you'll have no way to find out who it was. Then what? It's the digital equivalent of throwing a pile of money in the mailbox of a random house.
