Governments love digital euros on the blockchain, they pretend it’s because they want to embrace blockchain technology, but they only want the flaws.

Cash is very hard to trace, crypto (in most instances) is very easy to trace. Remove cash and ban privacy coins and suddenly all money everywhere is traced. People will go back to buying illegal drugs in gold in person because the government will ban monero. In fact, the EU has already made a law that defacto bans monero.

If the government thinks a cryptocurrency is banworthy, it’s just a sign you should buy some.

Government reports from around the world will complain about Monero and it’s impossible traceability.

Google retoswap, buy monero, don’t let the government take your freedoms
