Few books explain Bitcoin’s importance beyond price like The Bitcoin Standard. Sound money, low time preference, civilization built on discipline instead of debasement, aye, that book should be required reading before any man is allowed to vote, borrow, or print a single coin.

But here’s a question I’ve been turnin’ over like a compass in rough seas:

Ammous argues that once sound money takes hold, society naturally shifts toward long-term thinking, stability, and higher culture. I believe the monetary foundation matters deeply, but do ye think sound money alone is enough to overcome human obedience, comfort, and the desire to be ruled?

Or put another way, if men are given honest money, but still crave authority, does Bitcoin change the world, or merely reveal it? Curious to hear how other sailors read that chapter. ⚓⚡
