“Bitcoin was created by the CIA/NSA, but it doesn’t matter. To give wealthy people a way to opt out of CBDC.”
That’s a psyop. It subtly discredits the precursor work and, especially, *principles* of the cypherpunks. Unless we get concrete proof, I will always obstinately insist that Bitcoin was made by cypherpunks because the alternative promotes the blackpill of the immortal omnipotence of the State.
Destroying central banking and, at least, catastrophically shrinking the size and power of the State is the correct moral position. I don’t care how unlikely you think that is. If nobody thinks it is possible, then it can never happen. Someone has to believe it if it is to have any chance of happening. Blackpills beget blackpills. Onward.
