I think the real innovation is permissionless

Yes you could get permission.. but it would take time. What if you want to do some random thing over a weekend? You’re not going to want to ask permission

Asking permission also opens the giver up to an implicit risk. Not just in a legal sense, but if you need to ask a mid level manager for permission they have nothing to gain and everything to lose

Putting everything out there on a permissionless chain with a rock solid set of predefined rules, it’s the hacker dream
