The question is a bit rhetorical. The idea that an individual would not create policies that favour themselves is absolute regardless of morals. The ability to wield power will mean it use be abused eventually.

Bitcoin removes the temptation to create fake value/ devalue work created by fiat printing. The more humans meddle the more they mess up.

My personal view is that while a scarce unit of account is import it doesn’t solve for politics. I feel such discussions are missing in the bitcoin space.

I really think this is a super timely debate.

In the end, power is wanted for the sake of power. The problem lies in the ethical and moral debate: what do you want to achieve with that power?

I think the key lies in the collective, in that way of regulating each other, without obviously restricting freedoms, which is why I used the word "regulate" rather than "control."

Bitcoin is like that; it is regulated by the community. I think it would be interesting to apply this practice to other areas of life.
