Snowden Warns Bitcoiners: Not All Politicians Are Friends!⚠️
Edward Snowden, the digital whistleblower, has issued a stern warning to Bitcoiners. Speaking virtually at the Bitcoin 2024 conference, Snowden cautioned the crowd about politicians attempting to win their hearts and minds.
“Cast a vote, but don’t join a cult,” Snowden said. “They are not our tribe.” The former NSA contractor implied that many lawmakers are more interested in their own agendas than in the true spirit of Bitcoin. This is a stark contrast to the recent speeches by Senators Hagerty, Lummis, and Scott, who have been courting the crypto community.
Snowden's words echo a growing sentiment among Bitcoiners who are wary of government overreach and the potential for regulation to stifle innovation. It's a reminder that while politicians might seem like allies, their primary loyalty lies elsewhere.
Interestingly, Snowden himself has been a subject of political intrigue. Despite calls for a pardon from Presidents Obama, Trump, and Biden, he remains in exile in Russia. Trump even hinted at a pardon in 2020 but never followed through.
As Bitcoin continues to grow in popularity and influence, it's clear that the battle for its future will be fought on many fronts. Snowden's warning serves as a crucial reminder to stay vigilant and question those seeking to gain your trust.
Remember, not all wolves come dressed as sheep.
