Look, it’s pretty simple:
If the state can identify you, it can target and kill you.
Doesn’t matter why, it just can.
There is a reason Satoshi was anonymous and why bitcoin isn’t an LLC.
That’s because if you don’t have a physical space or identity to be located, the state can’t physically or economically harm you. With cryptography, you actually have a shot at hiding from the state, and building things that they cannot stop.
