Cash is universally a vital source of economic power; hence, an attack on cash is an attack on a crucial freedom—financial freedom.
Given the current situation in Nigeria, it's important to remember that cash is not only essential for privacy, but it remains a critical financial bridge and a lifeline for the unbanked.
In a cashless environment, Bitcoin becomes their only alternative.
Though there is still hope, we must remain focused and vigilant to eliminate complacency.
Financial freedom is not a shiny feature on an app. For Bitcoin, it is a consequence of having a protocol with a free open, accessible, permissionless, decentralized Global monetary network that allows people to take back control of their money. A more pertinent realization is that moving forward, this will require even more work to protect and preserve.
Attacks on freedoms will never end, so we must, inter ala, continue to build and fortify ourselves to the very end.
