Why are there so many leftists within crypto? As Solana says in his bankless episode, crypto disintermediates and reduces the power of the state. I get why libertarians and rightists like crypto, but why leftists? Leftists should want state power to enact leftist policy goals if they care about leftist outcomes.

Yes crypto reduces the power of the state in favor of protocols.

But power of the state isn't the goal of leftists. It's just a means to achieve leftists policy goals. 

These same goals could also be achieved with code, smart contracts, crypto incentives, etc.

To portray the passions of people is to reveal them.

That's what we will do. New project 🔜
