Exactly. We know that power corrupts.
It’s my greed that led me to Bitcoin. My desire to be wealthy and have a better life. If I gained a position of power, I might be corrupted. In fact, many of you would expect that. That’s why nostr and bitcoin are decentralized. We’re not fixing the world with altruism. We’re doing it by aligning with people’s self-interest in a way that can’t be corrupted. If we need people to change to fix the world, then it’s never going to happen. People will never change.
