Show Notes

"That is not to say that Bitcoin will lead us to a pacifist utopia in which any attempt at violence suffers metaphysical intervention by the spirit of Satoshi. That money can grant power is clear enough as there will always be a clearing price for violent thuggery. But what will distinguish a Bitcoin standard is that power will not grant money." - Allen Farrington Today we dig into another great piece from The Bitcoin Times Ed 4. What are the characteristics of Bitcoin, that truly make the separation of Money and State a true possibility for our future?
