Under a Bitcoin Standard, no one runs for leadership roles. They are bestowed upon the most qualified based on the current situation, mission, and need.

Comanche chiefs were not elected or selected in any formal way. Followers gravitated to those in the community who were most deserving. When a war party was needed, someone who asked for volunteers and would have to convince others based on their past performance, ability of persuasion, and plan of action for that particular mission.

It was completely decentralized leadership without a single unifying head for Comancheria, arguably the most powerful empire to live in North America.

Young men trying to make a name for themselves or win over a woman would have to show their virtue.

These are the principles that human culture has lived by for millennia and have only recently forgotten about because we’re convinced modernity is so much superior to the past. We are the most privileged idiots who have ever existed on the planet and it shows.

If you know and understand this, it’s your duty to carry on this legacy for future generations.
