for 5 years everyone was shouting out to the government that bitcoins should stay anonymous,
for decades everyone was shouting out that the government should not hand out private info of citizens financials /private life...
...
now everyone wants to know who owns specific bitcoins and wants government to release financial info of private citizens...
it's the reason why i think the majority of bitcoiners are in it for themselves, even though some may say "we just want a better world." wanting wealth for yourself is just human nature.
