This rule was proposed some time ago, and there was a lot of pushback.

It's not clear what the final state will be, but it's definitely something to pay attention to.

Thanks for clearing that up. Honestly, I’m not worried at all, but I respect anyone who is. I’m chill because I’m not in the US. Maybe Europe’s already cooking up something similar though. Either way, I figure it’s gonna be hard to prove anything. If anything, I’m the one banning the government when it comes to Bitcoin! Hahaha.

If I will write on a piece of paper that you are not allowed to have more than 1 address, would you obey my "act" ?

Hahaha! The law doesn’t say you can’t, it just says you might get hit with consequences if you do.

Everything in this world is based on consensual contract. If you accept the contract terms, then yes you pay the consequences. Now think about WHEN did you accepted that contract (aka the "law").

Is that a question? If it is, I think it was when I accepted the citizenship.

Did you accepted? I mean literally somebody came to you and presented you the full contract with all the stipulations in it ?

I don't think so... so you were duped into it. But people are also duped into a contract when they vote a politician / gov. That is their expressed consent that they allow the politicians to do whatever they want with their lives (aka slavery by consent). Once you vote you are not allowed anymore to complain, you will only pay the consequences.

No one showed up. Ahahah But I’m guessing that by renewing your ID card, you’re kinda agreeing to it anyway.

Yes you even recognize that you are a piece of paper (aka a dead body converted into a corporation that works for them) and not a living man.
