“:It is not merely my opinion that the authorities can cut you off from the third parties that you mistakenly thought make a normal bank account”

how, when, where, by whom - examples with evidence.

“Those are advantages you profess a continued ignorance of, if not their existence, their value”

They are examples that are immaterial as they are of no practical significance. They are examples of Bitcoin theory meeting practical reality, making the theoretical possibility of no practicle significance. It is only your opinion that those matters are materially signifcant to 99% of folks 99% of the time, which they are not.

Commodity futures and Bitcoin are, to most knowledgeable investors, pure speculation trades, period. That is how they are similar.

That was provided in post #27.

But I can quote it again here, with the same link I provided for you to further education yourself on the news you missed:

Trudeau Took a Page From Obama When He Froze Protesters' Bank Accounts

Banks are not really private businesses. "There are barriers to entry. You have to get permission to start a new bank.…The financial services industry is so intertwined with government."

That government connection means bureaucrats who regulate banks can silence government's critics by cutting off access to their money. In Canada, protesting truckers resisted pressure from police and politicians for weeks. But once Trudeau froze their money, that was the beginning of the end of their protest.

When governments can de-bank you, you are not really free.

It is only your opinion that those matters are materially signifcant to 99% of folks 99% of the time, which they are not.

FDR's Executive Order 6102 applied to 100% of Americans for over 40 years. Does that satisfy your request for 'how, when, where, by whom - examples with evidence'?
