You know, I'm listening to that new Saylor podcast and it's funny.. they mention two things separately but don't seem to rub these two thoughts together.
1. Saylor says you can't roll into someone else's country and start killing people because their Bitcoin is in their head and there would be nothing to seize.
2. The most virtuous thing you can do is die with your keys because your loss is everyone else's gain.
..... Isn't there technically some form of incentive structure there for bitcoiners to murder each other, given every all lost bitcoin increases the value of the rest?
Like, if 50% of all bitcoiners lived on an island, don't the other 50% stand to gain from a sudden major loss of life there?
Grim thought.
