My understanding is that when people say Money is speech what they really mean is that it is a human right.
When an authority freezes your bank accounts (like Trudeau/Freeland did to the truckers) they infringe on your other rights (right to property, right to shelter, right to assembly , etc) demonstrating how much of a slave people are under these regimes.
When a payment processor cuts you off without recourse, they also infringe on your rights.
Money that most people know today is a terrible way to store value as it is also a tool for the state to control them.
Ethereum is now another government tool since a great percentage of transactions are validated within the US jurisdiction and are thus subject to the same draconian laws as federal bank issued money.
