this is really a valid question. Frankly it is a hard problem, and its why I like too much bitcoin. It permit to lower the power all the states (mostly, with large approssimations and case studies) at the same time, and empower individuals in a decentralized distributed way. So we can fight the state without risking to "kill only our state just to end to be slave of the confinant state".

Overflowing their money-printers saving in bitcoin will not end the states, but will lower by order of magnitudes their power and is a concrete step in the right direction.

An ancap weapon that works consistently in the real world!

My goal would be having a state with lower and lower powers, and end in a situation where we can "deliberately associate" and privately reform the minimal structures for global cooperation based on consensus.

Anarchy is when we deliberately cooperate and assist each others, not necessarly a continuos violent environment.

And I'm so confident in humanity that I think a anarchy environment would be mostly good to live in, even if more adversarial than what we have today in strong democratic state (thats mostly a feature).

This would be why I think constitutional monarchies are the way to go...

I dont know exactly what could be the form but the two principles I think it should follow are:

1) intentionality and incentive-driven partecipation (noone forced to pay taxes, incentives for good actors).

2) from small to big (major of powers to individuals, a bit less to local little associations, less and less until global istitutions with minimal roles).

Its really difficult to identify the concrete steps to tend to this goals, the only trivial good action that everyone can take today is embrace bitcoin, and thats why its so good and I'm so grateful it exists.

The most successful monarchies would be those adopting a Bitcoin Standard and allowing free markets to do their thing.
