If it helps it's the payment processors doing this, not Kickstarter themselves. They are somewhat being held to ransom like a few of the other places that stopped allowing sexual nsfw content. Murder and mayhem, as usual, totally okay. Boobies bad. Death and hate totally fine...

This is what Bitcoin was invented for. No government or bank can control it.

They can and should ban the currency of it at this point. Destroy all of that "wealth" and make recognize it as illegal. If nothing else it stops people from being forced into using it the way cc does

It is peer to peer, you cannot ban or remove it, it is here forever. There are no central points to remove. It is individuals networking with other individuals.

They can't stop people from using it but they can ban it from being used for things like paying debt, buying cars buying houses etc
