Chapter 2482

Once he heard that Jasper had a way to solve his financial problem, Assange, who was initially a little hesitant to mention his pain, instantly perked up.

“Mr. Laine, please tell me… We’ve been worrying about this for a while now…”

“The problem now is not only that we lack funds to expand services. What’s even worse is that, because of the exposure of remittance addresses, many of our people have been controlled… You know, although we are still pretty small-scale now, we have definitely offended a lot of governments. We need more money to expand services and more money to protect our people.”

Jasper knew that the ‘protection’ Assange mentioned meant that he needed money to bribe those Western officials in exchange for a certain level of protection.

Jasper smiled and said, “Don’t worry, my method will not only help you solve the financial problem but it will also save you from having to seek the same protection methods you used before.”

Assange’s eyes immediately lit up after hearing this, “Mr. Laine, please tell me. I’m becoming more and more curious now because that is exactly what we need urgently.”

In fact, Assange had wanted to talk to Jagoan just now.

Although they were separated by a screen, he was still acutely aware that Jagoan, who didn’t stand out at all, was the leader of the group. Besides Snow, who had just demonstrated his extraordinary skills, the burly man standing behind Jagoan exuded an aura of lethality, making it evident that he was far from ordinary.

So, how could someone who can assemble such exceptional individuals as his subordinates be considered ordinary?

Because of preconceptions, Assange had assumed that Snow was one of Jagoan’s people.

Jagoan looked at Assange’s anxious face and smiled. “The reason you are worried about the security of your funds is because your existing payment methods are very dependent on banks… As long as the government controls the banks, all your payment routes are visible to them…”

“In fact, even in the West, where private property enjoys freedom, supposedly neutral private banks must still yield to the authority of the state. Even Swiss Banks in a neutral country are no exception. Although their banks use the safety of funds as a selling point to attract global funds, they will still have to hand over all their financial information to the United States if the United States asks them to.”

Jagoan’s words were not groundless.

In the future where he originally lived, such things have happened again and again, which fully proves the ridiculousness and absurdity of the West’s claims of neutrality.

Seeing that Assange still looked unconvinced, Snow echoed, “Assange, Laine is right… Our intelligence agency can indeed obtain Swiss Bank’s information, and their reliability is very questionable.”

“Then, what should we do?” Assange looked a little panicked at this time. “My original plan was to deposit the money in a Swiss Bank, but now it seems that this plan is obviously not feasible.”

Jagoan smiled and said, “Since we will be subject to state-level attacks if banks are involved, why don’t we skip the banks in the payment process? For example, distributed peer-to-peer payments?”

In later generations, there was indeed a payment method called distributed peer-to-peer payment.

This payment method would use a new digital currency called Bitcoin.
