Food for tasting thought:
If Bitcoin is just another asset, then bitcoiners are not revolutionaries, just early adopters of the next stock.
If Bitcoin is money outside control, then why is it taxed, regulated, and influenced by the same forces that control fiat?
The illusion of (de)centralization is useful.. because it keeps people engaged in a system they think they control.
The endgame isn’t just digital money. It’s programmable value networks that dictate economic behavior at the code level.
Bitcoin wasn’t a revolution. It was an early-access beta test. #Satoshi
