Actually, thinking more about this, this perfectly connects to Ayn Rand's idea that money is the root of all good.

I wouldn't define it as the root of all good per se in my humble opinion, but a reflection of our measure of good. A mathematical translation of good. If work is sacrifice, and sacrifice is the root of all love (Eric Fromm), and love is good, then money is a great reflection of something that's good in its very essence.

Bitcoin being the best money ever invented/discovered is thus a great reflection of good in itself. Or a great way to quantitively measure good.

This is super obvious and trivial if one thinks about but I find this mindblowing nonetheless. Ayn Rand was incredible. Francisco d'Anconia discourse on money is beautiful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-T0ey0IKDA

She very insightfully pin pointed this idea of "making money" to the US. It seems like a trivial insight but in my view it's perhaps the most important philosophical insight of the world that's coming next.

We really might be moving into a golden age, by all different measures.
