Leon, 24, who just graduated from uni, held a sign promoting Bitcoin on one side and American broadcaster Max Keiser, who hosts a financial programme on Russian TV, on the other People Protested Against Everything at London’s Million Mask March Leon, 24, who just graduated from uni, held a sign promoting Bitcoin on one side and American broadcaster Max Keiser, who hosts a financial programme on Russian TV, on the other. “I thought I’d come down and take some direct action—I’m quite into the finance world and economics etc, and I felt that I wanted to take a stand against a lot of corruption and fraud and criminality that’s going on in the city of London,” he said. “Bitcoin is one of a few methods of emancipation from the current monetary system in my opinion. Free from government control, free from inflation, deflation, etc, it can’t be stolen from you. That’s the gist of it really.” Leon was joined by 26-year-old Jay, who runs a gaming website and is himself the proud owner of 50 bitcoins. He saw Leon’s sign and wanted to join him in promoting the digital currency, which he said goes hand-in-hand with Anonymous’ aims. “If you look at the things Anonymous has supported, such as the Pirate Bay for example, and Edward Snowden, Bitcoin is paying towards both of those guys, that’s the only way they can get money.” November 08, 2013 at 12:09AM ift.tt/HBscnM
