People in the future will marvel that in the early years of bitcoin that we allowed 5 people to just decide what bitcoin is. And half of them didn't know the difference between a man and a woman.

People will look back on this time as one of the most morally depraved, inhumane and dangerous times in history.

They will look back on us like we lived in the dark ages.

We are cavemen who discovered lightning.

Meaning, besides the incredible advancements in technology, we are so early in the evolution of human governance and morality that what we tolerate today will become unheard of in the future.

I believe technology can actually play a huge role in this.

Either we adopt a sound money or governments will inflate away all the productivity and prosperity that would be achieved through AI and robotics.

Either we treat each other decently and leave each other alone or there will be endless wars.

Either we shrink governments or they will inevitably lead to tyrant after tyrant.

As the world goes so does bitcoin, or maybe vice versa.

Just maybe.

The solution is simple. Opt out. Buy what you need from friends and family with bitcoin and accept it as payment for your products/services.

Save your data on your own computer.

Shop locally.

Go to church.

Get married and start a family.

And have fun.

I think we would be ok if we all just did that and didn't worry about much else.
