Cryptocurrency's Inherent Connection with Politics

in #cryptocurrency4 years ago

Decentralized versus Centralized. Immutable versus Non-Immutable. Self sovereignty versus subordination. These concepts are not new to the world because of crypto.

They bore other names in history. Federalist versus anti-federalists for those familiar with US history. Liberal versus Conservative (irrelevant any longer, but by historical standards) Its a debate that has been held since the beginning of critical thought.

Crypto currency brought people together, but by different means. Some value Satoshi's notion of wealth liberation. Some value the value. Some value the wide range of possible solutions the tech can bring to the world in all sorts of sectors. These include privacy, censorship resistance, faster services to get money to people world wide.

Find out what you believe. Seek out contradicting ideals to your core principle and remove them. This is not to be confused with rationalizing them. Know ones self and dont allow yourself to be told what you should think about anything or anyone. Look for yourself. In the end you either believe government should have more power over the people or the people should be free.

Hint: The political philosophers long ago concluded that society will always rule the government.
