I read most of the content from this blog, and I was pleasantly surprised to see Scott make a clear rational case for cryptocurrency (I’m saying “Bitcoin” in my head while reading it!).

The essay shows that he’s at the start of the rabbit hole .. he still needs to realise that when a specific protocol like Ethereum is subject to intense centralising pressures and is already co-opted by the state, then Bitcoin is the only thing that meets the requirements he lays out.

I also find the comments interesting on this blog. Good to see a lot of people making the human flourishing argument in favour of proof of work against dismissive nocoiners and PoS midwits.
