Edward Snowden, president of the freedom of Press Foundation and well-known whistleblower, considers there is much more value in cryptocurrencies in their use as a method of digital payment than as an investment. Snowden deduces that crypto is preferable as an expandable asset than a form of investment. The former computer intellect consultant made this contention at a virtual media session in Austin, Texas, saying, ' I use Bitcoin to use it. In 2013, Bitcoin is what I utilize to pay for the servers pseudonymously.'

Snowden has used BTC to pay for server maintainance pseudonymously
The Whistleblower surmise there is no issue that has to be sorted in crypto
Snowden also vindicated the crypto industry in the face of recent denunciation

' Generally I don't encourage people to put their money in cryptocurrencies as a technology, and this is what distances me from a lot of people in a community,' Snowden mentioned in a virtual interview at CoinDesk's Consensus 2022 conference.

The underlying issue of Bitcoin is that it is not private, according to Snowden. Illustrating the Bitcoin whitepaper, he said. It is deteriorating as an electronic cash system because cash is noteworthily intended to be unacknowledged.'

Snowden also vindicated the crypto industry in the face of recent denunciation by a group of tech experts who in an open letter denigrated cryptocurrency and blockchain technology as a conglomeration to contrast persuading efforts at the beginning of this month.

Snowden said he credence endorsers were laboriously misunderstanding the crypto industry, reprocessing a number of rationalizations that have been made frequently in the past.

'The letter is an argument for the status quo,' Snowden said. 'There is a wide range of strategies to aim all of their concerns. The people who have signed this letter could acknowledge this industry. They certainly should.'

Substantially, Snowden banished the letter and delineated the endorsers as 'prolific public trolls'. Howbeit, he did deluge acclamation on the lead endorser of the letter, Bruce Schneier, eulogizing him for astounding work in the field of cryptography.
