Ever wonder why we keep accepting the premise that governments automatically get a cut of everything we earn? With decentralized finance and self-custody solutions becoming increasingly accessible, that narrative is shifting fast. You control your private keys—you control your assets. No intermediaries, no mandatory gatekeepers skimming off the top. The beauty of blockchain tech is that it operates independently of traditional tax infrastructure. Whether you're moving funds across borders, engaging with DeFi protocols, or holding crypto in non-custodial wallets, the entire system is designed around financial sovereignty. The old model assumed everyone needed permission to participate. Web3 flips that script completely.

To be honest, after hearing it so many times, I still feel a bit numb... but there's really no way to argue.
The private key is the key, there's no doubt about that.
If you truly want to achieve financial freedom, you still have to rely on what you hold in your hands.
But on the other hand, how could the government just let it go like that...

With the private key in hand, I own the world. Say goodbye to tax officers—feeling great or not?

Hi, finally someone dares to say this. Before, everyone was suppressed so tightly.

With the private key in hand, I truly have the world. This is real freedom. I'm already tired of taxes.

Well said, this is true financial freedom. The private key is the password; controlling it means controlling everything.

I have the private key, and the world is mine, but only if I don't get hacked 😅

Damn, honestly, this set of logic sounds good, but in reality... the tax bureau wouldn't think this way haha
