If the method of payment is not disconnected to the “handing over” of the good or service, you are de anonymised, and as you’ve seen, the State is not averse to requesting mass dumps of records of completely innocent people.

The hat that Matt Odell is wearing is from the VC company Ten31. Unlike bitcoiner larpers, who whine about KYC and do nothing about it, like supporting businesses that don't KYC to supply you sats, Matt's company Ten31 invested in Samourai Wallet, showing that at least he puts his money where his mouth is, and it's not all LARPing.
If you want a world without Internet IDs and a bitcoin ecosystem that is KYC free from end to end, you should be like Matt, who invests in and promotes companies that are doing the hard work to make the world you want a reality.
What you do not do is sit on the sidelines and refuse to even speak about the brave people like William Burroughs and Keyonne Rodriguez who are building the systems that are provably what people want. I say, "provably" because hundreds of millions of dollars worth of bitcoin was mediated by Samourai wallet users and its beautiful tools.
At the end of the day, there needs to be a small, dedicated, stubborn number of people like Matt, William Burroughs and Keyonne Rodriguez who are willing to stick their necks out and do whatever they can to grow the Ethical Bitcoin Ecosystem. What is intolerable and inexcusable is burying your head in the sand...like an ostrich.
It is already proven that the small number of fanatical coders and capitalists have the power to change everything. This is why GPG exists, why GNU/LINUX exists, why WhatsApp and Signal exist and why bitcoin, Samourai and other tools exist. Someone has to do the work, someone has to promote the tools, someone has to rise to the challenge.
The perpetually giggling, unserious, threadbare, faddish, cowardly, distracted, unintelligent, eloiesque, "Main Character Syndrome" actors who are too frightened to even say the name "Samourai Wallet" are collaborators with the system they claim to despise and be against.
For all of this, bitcoin will succeed and usher in the world these people are too frightened to talk about and don't even know they need. They rejected fiat reluctantly (and this is not their fault; they're the victims of the State), but once seeing its fundamental flaw, should naturally have been radicalized, but were not.
Oh well...you can't have everything...
OR CAN YOU?
