"There's a Reason Government Doesn't Want Bitcoin Adoption…" (Lyn Alden)



In an interview with Simply Bitcoin, macro analysts Lyn Alden broke down why the government doesn’t want Bitcoin to become widely adopted and how Bitcoin can disrupt the power structure. Alden explained that because the current system has no transparency, governments can run at a deficit without most understanding what’s going on, print the difference, and leave us footing the bill via taxes. This lack of transparency and broadening of the currency clearly devalues the savings of the general population on a year-to-year basis, but Alden argues it’s deeper than that. Alden believes, if there was more transparency in the monetary system, wars would happen less, the legislation would change, and fiscal responsibility would change. Governments wouldn’t be so eager to spend, knowing there are checks and balances to their spending. In Alden’s view, the transparency of Bitcoin, and the scarcity of Bitcoin (if adopted at a large scale) can be the great equalizer for the people.

  1. Inflation is a hidden tax used to fund unpopular spending like wars and mass incarceration. Adoption of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and it's more advanced grandchild Cardano will stop government from using inflation to fund activities the people do not want.

  2. I don't understand how bitcoin is independent, out of the system, off the radar, when it is valued in dollars. If I want to buy something with bitcoin don't I still need an exchange rate?

  3. So the government is going to be worried about private keys and holding your own bitcoin privately, but yet they have no problem with US dollars if you hold a million dollars illegally or unreported which can easily be done, they will never know that you have it anyways? Great show really appreciate Lynn Aldens comments. Thank you
