Digital goods restrictions totally un-enforceable,
Physical goods restrictions easily bribe-able, reroutable.
Oil contracts already being drafted for settlement in crypto
(while you still did not install even solar on your own roof for you).
Privacy capable uncensorable unstoppable distributed cryptocurrencies.
Full stop.
Crypto world coming, better bet and best hedge for all outcomes,
is to begin broadly teaching voluntary non-aggression principles
of living peacefully free and together.
