“The computer can be used as a tool to liberate and protect people, rather than to control them. Naturally, in today's society, with power allocated so disproportionately, such ideas are a threat to large organizations. Balancing power would mean a net loss of power for them. No institution is going to pick up and champion these ideas. It's going to have to be a grass-roots activity, one in which individuals first learn of how much power they can have, and then demand it.”

― Hal Finney

Bitcoiners today: We don't need to fight for Bitcoin. Government will adopt Bitcoin as legal tender.
