No such thing as private property. If I stop paying property tax, it won't be long before I find out who owns what. We are renters/managers of the states property.
There is only force and avoidance of force. If I can protect my property with force, then it is my property. If I rely on the force of the state to enforce my "property rights", then it is the property of the state. If I try to protect my property from the state, I will become the next Waco.
Bitcoin solved the impossible contradiction of making something that is intangible and abstract simultaneously scarce.
That is why Bitcoin is the closest thing to private property that has ever existed, because it is so difficult to steal. Afterall, how do you steal an intangible abstraction?
The previous 10,000 years since Mesopotamia will be recategorized as proto civilization as historians look back at the inception of Bitcoin as the birth of private property and civilization itself. Instead of saying "taxes are the price of civilization", people will say "taxes are the seed of barbarism".
People will be shocked that there was ever a time when people would be threatened, at gunpoint, to be thrown into a rape cage just because they didn't want to hand over resources to strangers.
The nation state will dissolve into a curiosity of the past and the festering of nationalism and world war will shrivel up under the light of Bitcoin.

"The best leaders the people barely know. When they accomplish their task and complete their work,
the people say, "We did it ourselves.""
Lao Tsu
Once Bitcoin has reshaped the world and our institutions are righted, it will receive no acclaim. People will attribute themselves. The people won't adopt it until their government taxes them in it and that's okay. The world will never understand the role money plays in society and that's okay. There is no need for recognition or praise.
