You know who else would have loved bitcoin....Hitler. Stalin too. I asked Khan, but he's more in to the rape and pillage thing.
I don't know this. I know that they loved to micro manage everyone's life. Therefore they would have loved Visa, Paypal and all sort of other e-money where the government has complete knowledge who is buying what for which price, and where, in real time. And where the government has to "help" with each TX so if you buy things they don't like, they can choose not to help you.
The cashless society with proprietary e-money will also allow them to impose new taxes, such as VAT on purchases abroad and it will allow them to drive taxes to levels that will drive the tears in your eyes. Because you can't escape to cash any more.
I can see why Hitler and Stalin like the way our governtments are going. I can't see why they'd love Bitcoin
