非洲国家的抵抗 Bitcoin 只推迟不可避免的事情

Countries in Africa have the opportunity to become global leaders by adopting Bitcoin and providing a pathway for innovation. All fiat leads to Bitcoin.

There are two forward-looking countries on Earth when it comes to Bitcoin: El Salvador and the Central African Republic. These two very different countries on different sides of the globe have both come to the same conclusion: Bitcoin is the best money ever invented and embracing it early will be beneficial both for the people of the adopting nation and to the benefit and preservation of the concept of the nation-state itself.

另一方面,还有其他国家不是由有才华和有见地的人领导的。 乌干达可能就是这样一个例子,它的中央银行刚刚发布了这个非常不明智、不合时宜的声明,这表明它完全不了解与货币有关的所有问题以及货币方式即将发生的巨大变化被计入。

(乌干达银行)

他们的第一个错误是相信存在“加密资产”这样的东西。这个术语并不描述真实的事物,他们在公告中插入这个短语表明他们的想法根本不是原创的,而是从他们在互联网上读到的内容或银行告诉他们的内容中收集到的国际清算银行或国际货币基金组织。

与陈述进行比较和对比, 计划法律 passed by El Salvador, demonstrating a complete understanding of Bitcoin and what it means to the future of that country. There is a clear divide here; on the one hand, profound ignorance and, on the other, deep insight, responsible stewardship, future-oriented thinking and ethics.

Future-oriented governments will be desperate to fully embrace Bitcoin and its dynamics, knowing that the probability that it will become the world’s reserve currency is one. (That means an absolute certainty, math-challenged readers.)

Bitcoin was designed to protect everyone on Earth from stupid people, but before Bitcoin can protect you from stupid people, it needs to be adopted by those same stupid people that are the threat to you. This is the conundrum. How can you get stupid people to buy and hold and use bitcoin? And what happens when they’re running the government?

生活在道德管理国家的人们的答案是,像纳伊布·布克勒总统和福斯坦-阿尔尚·图瓦德拉总统这样的人必须掌权并负责任地使用他们的权力,使他们的国家摆脱根深蒂固的西方法定货币的枷锁。

The Central African Republic is symbolically placed on the continent to become the center of African bitcoin based ecommerce, being roughly equidistant from all points on the continent. That country could be transformed from being one of the poorest to one of the richest in very short order, should it harness the transformation made possible by adopting Bitcoin and then become a continental hub for Bitcoin. This is no more strange than El Salvador becoming a focus for Bitcoin, for those of you with a goldfish memory who believe this is unimaginable.

Doing business on the continent of Africa is very difficult. It is difficult to get payments in and very difficult to get payments out. For example, there is a black market exchange rate, and the government sanctioned exchange rate in Nigeria, meaning that there are two economies running in parallel, on top of the difficulty of moving money out. Bitcoin fixes all of this because anyone can send and receive bitcoin in any amount at any time, without permission, and its price is determined by the market, not the State.

Saying “without permission” or “permissionless” as Bitcoiners do, is a phrase loaded with so much benefit that it is hard to describe to Westerners who have no idea of what it is like to do business on the continent of Africa. They take for granted that doing business and sending and receiving fiat money is a matter of pressing a button.

例如,在尼日利亚,现实生活并非如此。

Moving money is fraught with difficulties and multiple ways of making a loss on a transfer. These piled up losses can make it impossible to earn a profit, and if you do, impossible to spend or recycle it where you need to spend or recycle it. Bitcoin makes all of this go away, as well as adding extraordinary speed to all transactions that are without precedent for Nigerians and many people living on the African continent.

Given all of the advantages of Bitcoin, an intelligent person would ask, “Why then hasn’t Nigeria officially embraced bitcoin as a means of payment?” This is the correct question, and there are many answers to this, some cultural, that are preventing the Nigerian government from embracing reality and acting boldly like a leader nation as El Salvador and the Central African Republic has.

Trying to do any sort of Bitcoin business in Nigeria very often involves the invocation of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), which has a stranglehold on all businesses and bank accounts in Nigeria. Bitcoin would abolish their societal status and the reign of terror that they’ve unleashed on the great people of Nigeria. It is a sure bet that this is one of the key reasons why they’re trying so hard to stamp out Bitcoin, rather than do their duty to serve the Nigerian people by embracing this new tool.

That the most populous country on the continent of Africa is the number two nation on Earth for Bitcoin adoption (one-third of all Nigerians use it) in the face of withering and unethical restrictions is a testament to the powerful and resourceful character of the Nigerian people who are born futurists, natural capitalists and extraordinary entrepreneurs: highly intelligent, capable and motivated.

阻碍尼日利亚人民的是完全腐败、保护主义和反尼日利亚的 CBN,它阻止了那里的资金流动和创新的蓬勃发展,除了令人作呕的权力欲望和 货物崇拜 mentality about the role of the State and necessity for a central bank. In Nigeria, more than any other country “Bitcoin fixes this” by removing the need for the naira from people’s lives as they switch to bitcoin.

Nigeria could become the African capital of Bitcoin if the Nigerian people used it without permission en masse, squeezing out the naira as the people’s money, exposing their businesses and personal finances to the free flow of money bitcoin facilitates. It could become the African capital of Bitcoin with an El Salvador-esque embracing of reality if Nigeria made bitcoin 法定货币。

Were the Nigerian government to do this, it would be the most powerful signal imaginable, and establish them as the absolute leader nation on the continent. It would not only signal that Bitcoin is changing the world, but that the so called “third-world countries” are taking their destinies into their own hands, opting for sound money over sycophancy, for reliability over rapaciousness, for transparency over tyranny, for clarity over corruption, for freedom over fiat.

The choice is simple. Nigeria must go full Bitcoin by law. The Nigerian people desire and deserve it.

但似乎尼日利亚落后的演员和货物崇拜者目前可能还没有准备好听到这些话。

尼日利亚政府版的证券交易委员会,一个模仿美国证券交易委员会的货物邪教,刚刚发布了一个完全荒谬的 文件 关于“数字资产”的发行和托管。 其中,是关于首次代币发行 (ICO) 发行的众多搞笑部分之一,这些首次代币发行 (ICO) 已经在地球上其他任何地方死去,如果不是,任何人都不会在尼日利亚发行。 这表明制定此“规定”的人只是从互联网上复制文本或被灌输了它; 事实上,关于他们的一切都被一路复制下来。

他们甚至有一个完全疯狂的部分,要求发布白皮书。 很明显,他们不知道这件事的起源 白皮书 “空间”中的现象,只是随着事物的进行而编造,调节和强制任何移动的事物,而无需了解事物是如何工作的或为什么存在。

Remember also, that every novel offering made available over the internet is now fully accessible by every Nigerian citizen, whether the Nigerian government likes it or not, because these offers are freely accessible and usable on commodity mobile phones. All these ridiculous copycat regulations do is ensure that Nigerians are excluded from writing and releasing software inside their own country. And the Nigerian government doesn’t have the technical capability to prevent Nigerians from using Bitcoin or any other communication tool.

实际上,这意味着尼日利亚人(目前有三分之一)公开拒绝那里的系统,并自愿选择非政府的货币和金融系统,因为它更适合尼日利亚的创新特征。

To a foreigner, the idea that Nigerians have a character of innovation may seem odd, but there is no other explanation for that great country being number two in the world for Bitcoin adoption. It is the Nigerian government that is Luddite and getting in the way of Nigerians and their inevitable joining of the global network as leaders and peers.

Finally (and thankfully), the position of the Nigerian government appears to be open to change. It is attending the extraordinary meeting in El Salvador with the governments of central bankers from Angola, Armenia, Bangladesh, Burundi, Congo, Costa Rica, Egypt, Gambia, Ghana, India, Namibia, Senegal, Sundan, Uganda, Zambia and 25 other developing countries flying in to find out how to embrace Bitcoin.

尼日利亚在这份国家名单上意义重大。 作为一个整体,这个名单上的国家比 金砖五国. If they all “go Bitcoin,” it will be one of the most significant events in modern history and the removal of the yoke of the dollar from the necks of billions of people.

Bringing them together outside the U.N./U.S. context is a stroke of genius. Now, together with common cause, common complaints and common animus, Bitcoin will serve as the basis for a new pole in the emerging multipolar world: one where financial coordination doesn't require trust and there is no leader, just the absolutely fair, transparent and totally ethical Bitcoin.
