The premise is bitcoin is an electrical power projection mechanism that can be used for resource competition. Previous to bitcoin, most people used kinetic power projection to compete for resources.

The scale of centralization is irrelevant to the core thesis. I agree that the US govt is much too large. The best government is the smallest government. It doesn’t mean that a small won’t use bitcoin as a national defense mechanism. Do you think El Salvador is doing the right thing with volcano bonds? Have they not used bitcoin and it’s properties to protect the country from outside aggressors?

Bitcoin will not completely eliminate centralization. There’s centralization in the network itself. Humans centralize due to our nature, that nature has been abused and coupled with obfuscation and miseducation about money to create the Fed and other central banks.

I agree that sats will flow to only productive people over time. This is why we win.
