Strongly agree

Yes

Libertarians generally support the idea of minimizing government intervention in personal and economic affairs. Classifying cryptocurrencies as legal forms of payment aligns with the libertarian ethos of promoting financial freedom, innovation, and alternatives to government-issued currencies. This stance is consistent with the libertarian advocacy for free markets and individual choice.

Agree

No, classify cryptocurrencies as unregulated commodities

While libertarians generally advocate for minimal regulation, classifying cryptocurrencies as unregulated commodities might be seen as a compromise that allows for the existence and use of cryptocurrencies without heavy government oversight. However, the complete lack of regulation might not be fully supported due to concerns over fraud and the potential for misuse, suggesting a more nuanced position.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only for cryptocurrencies that hold stable value without price fluctuation

Libertarians might be somewhat supportive of this approach as it recognizes cryptocurrencies as legal forms of payment, but the stipulation that only cryptocurrencies that hold stable value without price fluctuation be classified as such could be seen as unnecessarily restrictive. This condition could limit the types of cryptocurrencies available for use, which goes against the libertarian preference for broader individual choice and market freedom.

Strongly disagree

Very strongly disagree

No, classify cryptocurrencies as highly regulated securities

Classifying cryptocurrencies as highly regulated securities is antithetical to libertarian principles, which favor minimal regulation of markets. Libertarians believe that such regulation stifles innovation and limits individual freedom by imposing government oversight on what they see as private transactions.

Very strongly disagree

No, but the government should create an official digital currency

The idea of the government creating an official digital currency would be strongly opposed by libertarians, as it represents an increase in government control over the currency and financial systems. Libertarians advocate for less government involvement in the economy, not more, and would view an official digital currency as a step towards centralization and away from the decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies.
