That's even more of a reason to do it. Stand up for freedom, stand up for the underground movement. Don't bow to bullies. If scalpers get away with scalping, and people can sell stuff on craigslist all the time, even drug dealers become rich - why should op be criminalized for something as innocent as providing a service to which both parties agree? Imo that should be a trivial offense. Maybe tax fraud, more would be draconian.
I'm not going to be a martyr for libertarianism or Bitcoin. The whole point of these movements is to achieve freedom, which I'm definitely not achieving if I'm rotting in Federal prison for decades.

I'm not arguing the ethics of running an unlicensed money transmitter. I'm 100% in agreement that this prosecution is unjust. I'm just arguing the reality of the situation -- "mess with the bull, get the horns."
