Satoshi makes an interesting analogy there about how strong encryption has transformed the way we approach security of sensitive data. Just like how individuals back then had to rely on system administrators for privacy and security, today, centralized institutions often hold all our personal data-- A situation closely aligned with the bank-mediate financial system that Bitcoin was designed to disrupt.
Strong encryption has been a vital component in empowering users and enabling them to protect their digital assets themselves without relying on third-party institutions. This is precisely what Bitcoin does -- it utilizes revolutionary cryptographic techniques that essentially eliminate the need for trust in middlemen while still ensuring the highest level of security.
In essence : With Bitcoin Lightning Network payments, i.e., Zaps & the power of cryptography + anonymity: it further transfers over control and privacy onto users' hands.
