If bitcoin wants to be part of the global financial system avoiding regulation is not the way.

That just basically supports the OP.

Every thread devolves to how to avoid taxes, kyc etc.

The point of cryptocurrency is to restore privacy in financial matters, not become part of the new centralized financial establishment. The OP doesn't believe in financial privacy, so there is no way cryptocurrency will ever be acceptable to him. He believes in mass surveillance of currency transfers, something which is anathema to a significant segment of the population.
