Smells like law-evasion, so scam the state. What assets/values do you need to manage? What does permissionless means in that case? And why is crypto superior to existing solutions? And no, self-sovereignity is not an acceptable answer here, unless you life in north-korea.

Absolutely not. My country wants to know what assets (or waht they're worth to be more precise) I have end of Year, so I declare it. I have no problems with that. Good living conditions have a price so I happily pay my cut. If I don't like it, I'll leave.

Permissionless means that there is no central entity needed to observe or even approve my actions with my assets.

What existing solutions?

I strongly disagree, self-soverignty is a personal decision. It doesn't matter in what country you live.

To put it bluntly: fuck the state.
