Just a thought But what about on cash app where it says “cash balance” What if instead it said “fiat balance” Just to get more people to start questioning their money and what it actually is….
How do you incentivize freedoms? The human tendency is probably towards kingdoms when you think about evolutionary psychology. BTC is probably a good example for incentivizing freedoms as opposed to Kingdoms.

👉Crypto currency self custody(with own keys) is freedom✨ 👉Crypto currency with low or no fees is freedom ✨ 👉Crypto currency custody mode is dangerous old banking system, because they will soon or later seize or block you for no reason. 👉 High transaction fees are dangerous because making poor people even more poor and also unable to use crypto in daily life.

Mr.Dorsey, some want to lead and some like to follow. We are social creatures and it’s inevitable a power structure and hierarchy will develop. Because we are civil creatures, some form of governance will always come into play but people must never be forced into it. They can always have the freedom to choose who they want to follow. Men will always need Leaders.

People were more free when there were kingdoms
And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the Lord, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth, that I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich. Gen 14:22-23 KJV

Better billionaires than kings. Better estate tax than succession.
This sounded harsher than I meant. I only mean to say that Jack, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos absolutely interfered with the 2020 election. Twitter deplatformed a sitting president! It will be an injustice if there are zero consequences for what they did.

I agree, Jack, but we have to be realistic about human nature. Intellect isn’t evenly distributed, and insurrection and incumbency are just two forces that exchange positions over the arc of history. The smartest always find ways to create power structures that ultimately disadvantage the masses. "Freedom" is one of those emotionally charged words used to rally the masses, much like warriors in battle. Yet, in the end, all it does is pave the way for a new aristocracy to rise.
Kingdoms are necessary to preserve private property without which individual freedom cannot be realized. A cryptographic distributed system is secure only if it is computationally infeasible for the adversary to attack. In the same way if an individual can be isolated without a system in place to provide help then freedom cannot be realized. Maybe bitcoin will pave way for future Kingdoms which will be required to work for the benefit of the people than the dynasty?
#Freedom comes with rules, but those rules must be created by wise individuals; otherwise, true freedom cannot exist. I have no desire for rules made by foolish people. In this sense, governments are necessary—not kingdoms. Kingdoms simply pass the responsibility of leadership to the next heir, who might be unfit or incompetent. Communities, people, and even animals need guidance from those with wisdom and understanding. So yes, I completely agree with you—and with @jack
Queendoms bring freedoms And you know that! Proven multiple times by your actions & choices. Good for you. Respect 🫡
