=== Feds vs. Bitcoin (03:09) ===

[00:00:00]  About a week ago, the FBI arrested the man who allegedly owned Silk Road, an online source
[00:00:16]  of illegal drugs that accepted only bitcoins.
[00:00:19]  What is most interesting is that the FBI has not yet been able to seize over 600,000 bitcoins without his password.
[00:00:26]  The FBI can't crack it?
[00:00:28]  Or maybe they don't want to crack it.
[00:00:30]  Maybe they want to use it as an excuse to try to shut down Bitcoin.
[00:00:33]  While the war on drugs has been an absolute failure by any metric, the war on property rights and the war on due process has been a resounding success for the Feds.
[00:00:42]  We've seen an abuse of civil forfeiture without due process, without people being charged with a crime, and many cases of people who have their property seized are never charged with a crime.
[00:00:52]  So one of the key reasons to stop prohibition is the ludicrous unconstitutional extremes the government has taken in property seizures.
[00:00:59]  But it isn't just that bitcoins are hard for the Feds to seize.
[00:01:02]  They also offer something that Feds hate even more, and that's privacy.
[00:01:07]  Under the Bank Secrecy Act, financial institutions are required to report transactions to the Feds and must also, quote, know, in other words, verify, customer identities.
[00:01:16]  In other words, the Bank Secrecy Act means there is no secrecy with banks.
[00:01:21]  But as we've seen with HSBC, when large banks know their customers are drug cartels or terrorists, the feds leave them alone if they're a big bank that supports the central bank fiat money scheme.
[00:01:32]  HSBC was caught laundering money for Sinaloa and Zeta drug cartels.
[00:01:36]  They were caught laundering money for Hamas, Hezbollah and Al Qaeda.
[00:01:40]  Yet Assistant Attorney General Lanny Brewer said HSBC would almost certainly have lost its banking license in the US.
[00:01:47]  In the future the institution would have been under threat And the entire banking system would have been destabilized if they hadn't just given them a slap on the wrist.
[00:01:56]  If they had enforced the laws against money laundering.
[00:01:59]  But HSBC was too big to jail because they serve the fiat banking system and they partner with the Feds in running drugs and in arming terrorists.
[00:02:10]  The Feds hate Bitcoin because it serves as an alternative to their banking system and their control.
[00:02:15]  They would love to destabilize it, but that's not going to be easy.
[00:02:20]  If the government tries to shut down Bitcoin like they did Liberty Reserve, they're going to have a problem.
[00:02:25]  There is no single person for them to move against like Budofsky at Liberty Reserve.
[00:02:30]  Bitcoins are both anonymous and decentralized, so it will be very difficult for the Feds to try to shut it down.
[00:02:36]  If they do, they will drive it underground.
[00:02:39]  But if they can get a hold of the 600,000 Bitcoins, which are 5% of the outstanding total of Bitcoins at the time, they could try to destabilize it.
[00:02:48]  Good luck with that.
[00:02:50]  It will be very transparent if they try.
