I think a fair amount about why I am doing this (as in working in Bitcoin and educating around it as I see it), and why I don’t just throw it to the win and live my own happy little life.
The truth is that I think if we are not ‘all in’ we may very well lose. And not just bitcoin, but the wider vision of the Cypherpunks, and the possibility of a truly free internet and what that promise would mean to humanity.
I simply cannot walk away. I must do this because I feel morally and ethically obliged to fight fiat on every front available so that the lies may finally be seen by all for what they are: lies.
Damn lies that have pulled the whole of Earth into its nihilism and despair; damning language itself to its collapse and presenting the impossible idea of freedom from the State and its infinite tyranny.
We must win—or all of posterity will be enslaved forever.
