Edward Snowden spoke at the Bitcoin conference.
He emphasized that Bitcoin transactions are not anonymous and can be traced back to specific individuals, which he sees as a threat to personal privacy. Snowden pointed out that most transactions can be easily tracked through centralized exchanges (CEX).
"They know what you read, what you buy, who you send [bitcoins] to, who you support politically, where your donations went, all of this is available to them. They can make inferences about your thinking, they can make inferences about your belongings..."
He also cautioned against blindly following political ideologies, advocating for a more critical and informed approach.
You dont need to be a genius to understand it. Just open your eyes. $BTC
