Well, if the government is truly repressive evading capital controls can be considered a good thing.

I am still convinced that most people willingly holding Tether are trying to avoid paying taxes and skirt KYC.

That is the only sane explanation for this insanity.

Proof of Stake, an alternative to Proof of Work where users stake the currency for a chance to become the next validate (the winning miner). If they do anything shady or not allowed their stake is redistributed to the community.
