Okay hear me out, don’t come at me for ignorance.

But I’m teaching the last class today for BTC Isla (before they officially graduate next week) and in the last chapter it talks about bitcoin being a revolution and how it its paving the way for a more equitable and decentralized future.

The word “equitable” keeps come back because how can it be equal if it rewards early adapters? And of those early adapters most if not all had access to a computer back in the early days.

It isn’t equal to those in poverty though, that have no such resources.

Why is it that the poor always get the short end of the stick?

What do I mean by that? Well the less you have the harder it is for you to succeed, yet the more you have, easier it is for you to reach the top.

on the other side, the more you have the easier it is to be lazy and lose it all

also, equity literally means "a stake of ownership in a group resource"

so "equitable" is actually a nonsense

you start with less, it is harder to gain the same linear amount, but the power curve is the same in percentage terms
