is this riddle just talking about your sponsored coin ixcoin XIC taking on Bitcoin XBT to finally trap mankind into some sort of hidden crypto-financial despotism; and whilst holding to our coin would (at least) make us rich, but not free of some sort?!
ALL technology is enlightment and all enlightment is good. All technology from the discovery and techniques of working with iron, to the cross bow, firearms, Internet, etc. served to empower and free mankind from bondage.
Sadly, in some cases, like forfeiting your swords in Japan (sword hunt) or guns in many other countries - those who CHOSE to give the power of technology to evil rulers were enslaved by that technology which was designed to set them free.
By definition, there were 19 genocides in the 20th century according to the University of Hawaii Democide Project.
Each one was proceded by gun confiscation. In some of the more notable of the events, the UN Peacekeeping forces stood by and watched as a million people in Rwanda were brutally murdered.
Likewise, the blockchain and digital money will serve to bring about countless benefits to not one nation but the world. And like all previous revolutionary technology, when its time has come, no force on earth can stop it.
So learn from history - don’t be a nation of dumbasses - don’t empower evil rulers who will enslave you, be it with swords, guns or any other form of technology.
As for IXcoin - I worked tirelessly for half a decade to get everyone to buy so that you would at least get rich because I felt hard times are coming upon many nations soon, regardless of what happens with crypto.
Sadly, few listened.
