Given the worldwide push for rules, it may not be long until wallets also require KYC.
That can't happen. Government can ask us to hand them over all our previous, present and future addresses so they can register them under our name. There's Tor for that. Now obviously, there's another question.. how many would risk not listening to the government? I think enough people. If the moment comes where you're
obliged to tell the government which addresses you own, I'd imagine there are many more things they'll try to break and monitor such as privacy and other personal stuff.
I'd 100% be using Tor to avoid such regulations because by then we're gonna be under a very scary and creepy governance. Orwell would be the closest thing you can get to that. So who cares anyway? It could mean "freedom" would be less free than prison, lol.
Back to the subject, they just can't impose KYC for wallets. Even if they try, remember Electrum and other similar wallets are
open source which means a no-KYC fork would appear
immediately. Worst thing, we start going back to using previous versions of the wallets. KYC can't be imposed on the network, they can only try to scare you to stop using BTC the way you should. And they'll probably try it, but it'd never work - remember BTC was initially created to be a
peer-to-peer currency. If such anomalies happen because of the government, we'll just go back to what BTC should've been anyway.
