Well writ!
When I first got into Linux the point was driven that the most secure system doesn't do anything.
Just like you can make your own kernel and it will be great until you want to work with another system.
We are in a funny place with Bitcoin. With Linux I was just a nerd. With Bitcoin we have real scarcity and value that we openly discuss but also we don't want to be low hanging fruit.
Yep. I think about this quite often. One aspect I do not hear very often is that as bitcoin fiat market value rises we will likely go through a phase of hatred and envy but at the same time bitcoiners will have more wealth. It is very hard to be free without wealth. Wealth solves many problems. I'm not saying this will happen but I think about it being a possibility. Not that I have any bitcoin.
The other thing I think about is how much we bitcoiners assume about others. I think many assume other bitcoiners have massive stacks. Its very possible many do not. It also has to be that there are people with massive stacks that have kept it completely private.
There's a lot to think about.

We have a lot of human knowledge that is thousands of years old. That applied to Bitcoin will make the difference.
If we think of this place as a secular order based on human opinions then we have lost.
If we think of this place as a route to greater heights then we will win in all of our endeavors.
