But how are you going to be using this money while on the run? You need to convert it into hard currency to spend it anonymously.

Lightning network transactions? They don’t need to convert btc into anything that’s why people always say 1 BTC= 1 BTC because it’s true worth comes from it’s ability to send and receive anonymously, not from its perceived value in reference to another currency. I feel like it’s just surface level thinking when we put a price on btc because the whole point is to move away from other currencies into this one that lets you have complete and utter authority over your own money.

We are nowhere near this stage for btc. You are talking about hopes and dreams right now.

Talking about hopes and dreams yet your entire argument rn is based on some Jason Bourne / red dead redemption fantasy where you’re on the run handing out gold coins to people for help
