I don't intend to ever own bitcoin, but "the government called 1000 australians and asked whether they use a soon-to-be-taxed, questionably-illegal currency, and most people said no" is some pretty poor science. Why is this the top post in the "Science" community of the science-focused Lemmy instance?

Questionably illegal? It's Australia trying to ban Bitcoin?
