How FinCEN May Be Violating Your Rights
A call to action against FINCEN proposal 2023-0016A
Written By Preston Pysh

Eroding Anonymity Through Additional Verification: The mandate for “Additional Customer Identity Verification Measures for Transactions Involving Unhosted Wallets” is a direct affront to privacy and anonymity. This requirement transgresses on the First Amendment’s sanctuary for anonymous speech

A Direct Assault on Anonymity-Enhanced Currencies: The “Prohibition on the Use of Anonymity-Enhanced Convertible Virtual Currencies (AECVC)” is nothing short of a legislative bulldozer through the edifice of privacy.

Instead of doing their job and hunting down those that cause harm to others they will use threats of violence against those trying to their jobs and earn a living.

This is all about protecting the parasitic state's illegitimate position of stealing a percentage of every single transaction in order to continue carrying out intimidation, murder, and war crimes around the world for the benefit of a few elite families.
