 bitcoin as a tool is like gold or silver coins or vault deposit receipts or redemption certificates, or shells, or whiskey, or tobacco, a form of money

it is just a better tool than a central bank because it is completely automatic and does not enable privileged rewriting of the record

so it's mainly an error correction in addition to the construct of central bank accounts, and global rather than national

in that respect it is removing privilege from a group who have been using their power to slowly turn our society into Sodom and Gomorrah
