Every time I take a left turn through an intersection it is a reminder of the beauty of human incentives.
Two people are careening in two-ton metal death machines, directly at each other, then because of a simple human system (traffic lights) both turn left at the same time and miss killing each other by a matter of feet. This happens millions of times across the USA every single day.
Nearly all of those interactions result in both parties making it to their final destination safe and sound. Not because the roads were designed with additional guard rails or padding, but because each individual wants to live and make it wherever they are going to see their friends and family. Each of them has a positive alignment of incentives.
Well aligned incentives, I would argue, are the most integral thing to human flourishing.
Never in my life have I seen a system with a more beautifully aligned incentive structure than bitcoin.
It may be purely digital, but it's deeply human. Programmatically aligning each of our incentives so perfectly that it will inevitable bring us forward to the next phase of human flourishing.
I'm so grateful to be alive now watching this process happen. Hope you have a great Saturday!
