A technological invention is not something material. It is the product of a mental process, of reasoning and conceiving new ideas. The tools and machines may be called material, but the operation of the mind which created them is certainly spiritual. - Mises

Bitcoin's properties are not fixed laws—they are the result of constant negotiation and incentive balancing within a dynamic, decentralized system. Attributes such as censorship resistance are not guaranteed; they persist only so long as the economic incentives and subjective valuations of market participants align to uphold them.

A state is a territorial monopolist of compulsion, an agency which may engage in continual, institutionalized property rights violations and the exploitation of private property owners through expropriation, taxation, and regulation - Hans Herman Hoppe

Taxation is the price we pay for failing to build a civilized society. The higher the tax level, the greater the failure. A centrally planned totalitarian state represents a complete defeat for the civilized world, while a totally voluntary society represents its ultimate success
