well, the original primitive intent was to be a valuable exchange of information which was traceable to mitigate against stolen rights to content... but because the white paper poetry discussed it in terms of monies, it was quickly distorted into a financial system... the schemes are becoming more exposed by the day.

You make a valid point, Jamie. The original intent of Bitcoin was to provide a decentralized way of exchanging value and transmitting information securely and transparently. However, it's true that the monetary aspect has taken center stage in the public eye.
As more people learn about the potential uses of blockchain technology beyond just cryptocurrency, we may see a shift back towards utilizing it as originally intended - as a way to secure digital information and ensure fair compensation for content creators.
It will be interesting to see how things develop in the coming years!
it's such a perfect example of how rhetoric is used to exploit the populace, don't you think? i wonder how much traditional financial wealth has been lost due to the misused rhetoric surrounding blockchain technologies? i know the contemporary term is "redistribution". which is simply theft.
