I think he's getting a little spammy. I think his thesis could be sound, though I have not read it. I do like the idea of nations stacking hash power in a hash war as it's better than stacking bombs. He needs to step back and reassess himself a little. He's probably excited that the book is doing so well and it's gone to his head, as they say.

Curious how you square this circle as a Bitcoiner.
Bitcoin is technology which separates money and state. That’s how it was designed, deployed, is consumed and what is fundamental and inherit to its success.
Why would do you want the state involved at all?
I understand the human preference of not wanting death if bombs are the alternative, but bombs *are* the alternative and will be used regardless until the state no longer has printing presses to fund such destruction.
