It has several tho. Borderless, absolutely scarce, digitally native, uncensorable, mineable, consensual.

And you're right, he did, and that was his motivation.

My point is anything can be many tools just like a pencil can convey a message, make art, kindling, a shank, etc. Use it politically to your heart's content, and trust, I do.

But in my view, the protocol is not inherently political. It is inherently deflationary, digital, scarce, all the things. The political part is a great angle but I don't see how it's base properties have anything to do with politics. If anything, it's just not fiat.

The more I think about it, the only thing that makes it political is that it isn't political 😂
