oh I see the concern, especially if the serfs are subject to usury on their fake money granted to them by the overruling lords who hoarded the hard money out of sight and mind.
I was thinking about the contrast of locking Bitcoin away forever with establishing foundations with wealth.
This may be unfounded conspiracy, but let's just say for example: in the early part of the last century, the Carnegie Foundation helped standardize medical education under the preview of the American Medical Association. That served to remove a lot of snake oil salesmen, as well as homeopathic doctors. The American Medical Association oversaw who was allowed to practice and conveniently cigarettes were advertised as even good for you...
so while I appreciate the Carnegie libraries, I'm worried about the zombie foundations by which well-intentioned dead donors could be piloting civilization
