You, sir… you get it. 🧡💜

It is only through studying Bitcoin that I have come to reject the notion of Intellectual Property. Ideas and knowledge are not scarce; they are not economic goods. Legally limiting their distribution is good for the creator but detriments humanity as a whole.

I cannot fathom how innovation and prosperity will blossom when people have stronger incentives to share with everyone than to gatekeep and only share with those willing to pay a minimum price.

Indeed! I think the ultimate goal of any author, journalist, musician, artist, storyteller, etc... is to be able to share their work with the entire world, not have to hide their information from people. In order for a free market of ideas to compete, ideas need to be spread far and wide across the globe. This frictionless competition of ideas will only lead to maximizing the potential of the human condition.

^this.

Imagine how much more capacity average people would have to support creators if they weren’t perpetually being exploited by taxes and inflation.

Decentralized technology is enabling that free market of ideas to develop outside of this corrupt system.

Exactly, everything we're having to live through these days is a byproduct of living under bad monetary incentivizes created by bad money. Bitcoin fixes this.
