the difference is...of course:

GOLD DOESN'T HAVE A PUBLIC LEDGER LEADING RIGHT TO ANY KYC'D SPEND YOU MIGHT HAVE OR MAY DO

the government has the entirety of the rest of existence to sit back and correlated spends or you know... eventually do the thing it has done for centuries...crack encryption

the whole point of cypher punk and crypto is privacy

dummie cope, bitcoin isn't resistance money anymore, it's compliance and custodial now
