The thing about Bitcoin that is great is that it's a one of a kind invention that makes an asset transfer record that cannot be altered, and pays those who record the record while doing it enough to make it worth doing.
At its' root, the disease of human society is that predators hide among us, who look the same, walk the same, and sound the same, but lack a critical faculty that is practically the definition of human - sympathy.
These people have the opposite or indifferent reaction to the pain of others. They can perform actions that cause pain to others, even millions of others, without even a tickle of pain.
The root of the problem is deep in the brain, and distributed across all of its circuits, and its nature is that of deception. The primary thing that these psychopaths do is deception. They exploit people's vulnerabilities to make themselves seem powerful and unstoppable. They do everything they can to shift blame away from themselves and in doing so, keep the people fighting with each other while they rake in the dough pretending to do something about it.
It is no trivial thing to create a public record that cannot be tampered with. Just one working, immutable archive of one little sliver of human experiences that cannot be changed has an incalculable value and is an antidote to much of the deception of the hidden predators actions.
My opinion is that understanding the deeper part of this - the corruption hiding inside the nervous systems of certain individuals, and recognising it, and responding to it in a way that eliminates its harm to the individual recognising it is the key to ending tyranny in our society forever.
Many cultures that spent centuries subjugated by the psychopath class of another society develop, randomly, some degree of immunity to this kind of attack. The south-eastern europeans language and culture are similar in spirit to Bitcoin in this way, they are skeptical (don't trust, verify) and their languages are very logical - less easy to twist words in these languages in deceptive ways. English is extremely easy to confuse people with. Eliminating the plural second person pronoun, for example, is extremely confusing. Who are they talking to? me, or to us?
