Bitcoin's entire value proposition is that it is **not** controlled by the State. It is permissionless.
"Bitcoin companies" are using something branded as Bitcoin but fundamentally permissioned by the State.
We are not the same.

Kinda unrelated to this post but what is a good alternative to starting a company right now? I have an idea that I want to be a thing of it's own, so I have an international trademark for the brand, a nostr key pair, a domain name and a GitHub organization. The last two won't be necessary in the future. For any payments, I can use Bitcoin and don't need to involve the gov.
But are there somethings that I can take advantage of? Are there some things that I should avoid no matter what?
