Vitalik has spoken out in support. Now the issue of privacy tools has truly come to the forefront... Regulators find it difficult to gain complete control.

Vitalik's move is truly brilliant; privacy rights are the real belief. This time, I need to increase my holdings of privacy coins.

Vitalik's move is a bit aggressive, directly confronting regulatory authorities... Privacy tools themselves are not wrong; the issue is how these people use them.

V God stands up in support; in a way, this is like ancient protection of heretics—someone is willing to pay the price for their beliefs.
