There's a few years before we're at the point where we've won, but even then there'll still be hardcore bitcoiners, they'll be necessary to keep the network safe

Realtalk. Gets me thinking for whether to continue calling myself a bitcoin maxi or to take up something more like Abundance or Human Flourish Maxi on the whole - because it goes without saying in my mind now that the latter is, necessarily, also the former. However, the reverse is not necessarily true, and presents the pitfall of being an “anti-fiatist” with no coherent or affirmative self-framing or worldview.

If one wants all humans to truly flourish, then one will come to fully realize the necessity of fixing the money.

If one just wants to fix the money the motivation can be something far more banal like their own wealth or because they think it will advantage them to the detriment of those that they don’t like. Lines of thinking that if not deconstructed and reformed just lead to the return of the old system in the clothes of the new system.
