We are having two debates.  The first is “non-money” crypto, which collects revenue as a business.  For example Arweave collects revenue into a pool to distribute for a service.  This isn’t “just units of currency”, its a decentralized business. (And yes we can debate how decentralized)

Our second debate is Bitcoin the best cash.  Do you agree that the purpose of cryptocurrency is self-sovereign control? That people should control the private keys to their own funds?
