“I have to show them all these important papers you told me to keep safe? Then they take my money and hold it but they charge me monthly? They charge me again if I go below the amount they keep? I’m only allowed to take less than $500 per day if I’m outside of 7-4 M-F.

With the sanctions on open source software Tornado Cash it’s apparent they are trying to establish a precedent. They are coming for Bitcoin. GitHub had pulled the repo for Tornado Cash but later reinstated it. Now is a good time to mirror the Bitcoin repo and the myriad of wallets and node software.

Every Satoshi is a ticket to exit the failed monetary system. Stack as many as you can and HODL, they won't be on sale forever.
