The industrial revolution was a shift from individuals using technology to serve themselves or their community to specialisation as parts on an assembly line, disconnected from each other. A revolution in our ability to produce, but at the cost of our interconnectedness and autonomy.

But these examples stand at odds with the prevailing narrative about technology. Humans embrace of technology is what separates us from all the other animals and allows us to change the context in which we live, but a few hundred years ago something changed in our technological culture.

Cody Wilson released the Liberator in 2013. The first 3D printed gun, it wasnt a particularly effective firearm. But Cody himself said that wasnt the point, instead an attention grabbing specitcle that ignited the conversation about the power of code and the internet vs govt control

But how does software or Bitcoin connect to this, telling stories, performance art? here are two examples, the Liberator pistol and The Artificial Open Pancreas Project.

But the inverse is true, the masses also exert bottom up power that influences govts and corps. Through voting, selective disobediance, and even revolution they push back and also shape the direction of society. Their influence comes from activists and artists.

The elites exert top down power on society. Govts and corporations use laws, regulation and tech/apps essential to our day to day lives to exert influence and steer the direction of society. Their inspiration comes from experts, thinktanks and lobyists.

As a consequence I don’t think its impossible the majority of Bitcoin could end up held this way. How did we get here? Well in our efforts to onboard new Bitcoiners to our businesses, software and social ecosystem we try and relate it to something they understand. So for the majority of people Bitcoin has been explained as an investment, digital gold, wealth preservation. Something that for most it makes sense to entrust to a custodian.

Thats because for the majority of the wealth holders in the world, both institutional and individuals capital appreciation and regulatory compliance is more important than sovereignity. Holding their assets in the legacy system is preferable to the burden of education and responsibility of having to learn how to hold and be responsible for their own keys.
