Don't say it isn't so!? The community founded on circumventing existing financial structures are anti-authority? Next you're gonna tell me anarchists don't like individual leaders, or that socialists care about healthcare.
Source: I suppose also "made it out" although it wasn't hard, I left my job, like any other industry. Worth knowing as well that the cryptocurrency ecosystem isn't nearly as "internally" aligned as some people want you to believe, there is a large range in weirdness in the ecosystem, not just what parent above shared.
There's an irony embedded in both positions. Everyone cares about government, anarchists care about overthrowing the existing government in order to replace it with their own version. Similarly, everyone cares about healthcare, socialists care about other people paying for their healthcare.
But that's the thing; they aren't. They just want to be the authority.
Whatever solution we come up with, will work against all sources of warming or environmental damage. Although if one of those measures is banning Bitcoin mining, I wouldn't complain about it.
Alright we will see how long that lasts. If they want to enforce their “contracts” they will need a court (i.e. an authority) to order the opposite party to abide by their contract and if they don’t, police (i.e. an authority) will force them to court and enforce what the court says.
Bitcoin originally imposed this idea on payments, and Ethereum attempts to create this computational contract system for the non monetary consideration of contracts (the harder half of the contract).
There's a big difference between anti-authority and a-hole, knee-jerk opposition defiance disorder, but even if you're right wouldn't the people being asked to sign this contract be the last people to do so?
No, this is a legal document. You need to rip subculturally-driven context out of your mind and read it as a legal document.
And they often will drive millions and millions of dollars of crypto toward these ventures, often anonymously.
You have to read these kinds of things in the context of the target audience, which is very real.
