Maybe reframing it a bit - crypto is the only tech that’s able to be wielded by an individual without asymmetric advantage for larger players

Crypto truly reduces everyone to the same standing thanks to entropy

One could argue that disrupting the state and reducing people’s dependence on it is an offensive use case. 

All about which side you’re on I guess.

I think so

Great tools will always have multiple applications — what matters more is who wields the tool

Crypto can be wielded by anyone since the constraint is only having access to minor compute resources

That means more individuals can use it, hopefully in defense of liberty

is it enough though? or you need these things to be of dual use to be potent

Whenever I meet people in crypto, who don’t seem to care about freedom

I’m immediately suspicious
