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.

privacy for the individual, transparency for the state

is privacy a more left than right value?

Also isn’t it privacy from the state? So transparency and privacy at odds?
