Giving money an expiration date or restricting where and how it can be spent is not innovation, it’s rather exploitive manipulation disguised as technology. Cash is simple: it works anywhere, anytime, without permission. Programmable money flips that on its head, putting a switch in someone else’s (elites) hands.
The only way out? Bitcoin. After all, why not! Once people accept money with a “brain” controlled by a central entity, they’re agreeing to be monitored, profiled, and nudged into manipulated spending habits.
The real dystopia isn’t in the future, it starts the moment people hand over their monetary sovereignty in exchange for convenience. Bitcoin is the opt-out, the rules without rulers. A monetary system that protects individual rights by design, not one that can be rewritten by decree.
The only way out? Bitcoin.
Only if there are reliable on-ramps without KYC (which is not the case in Australia) and ways to spend it without off ramp via centralised exchanges (which is also not the case in Australia).

They could form P2P bitcoin to fiat trading groups on Signal, SimpleX, Vexl etc.
With more surveillance coming up, I feel like Bitcoiners need to be proactive in starting to build parallel societies and alternative institutions.

That's the reason the Bitcoin conferences aren't achieving serving the real purpose.
