I think it will drastically change human behavior through incentives, because up until now the incentive has been to exploit others for self gain but bitcoin creates a cooperative game. Whatever you do to add value to the network increases the value for all of us in equanimity as the network increases in value because it has 0 entropy.

So the incentive to do what is unhelpful, unwise, and unkind will over time go to 0. This is probably on a multi century scale though. Yet these incentives are sorely needed in a world that has the technological capacity to destroy itself with nuclear war due to not being sociologically advanced enough or wise enough to handle its technological capacity.
