French Presidential Hopeful Calls for Bitcoin Ban

in #bitcoin8 years ago

The good lady is confusing a truly "decentralized and consensus based ecosystem" with Bilderberg's vision of a "cashless society" on centralized and non-public ledgers.

"The head of a major far-right political party in France has called for ending the use of bitcoin and other digital currencies in the European country.
In a note published last last month, Marine Le Pen, leader of the National Front and its expected candidate in the 2017 French presidential election, accused world leaders of seeking to create a world with no cash and positioned bitcoin as an effort fueled by Wall Street power brokers."
