There’s a kind of libertarian utopianism at work in the whole digital currency market. It’s sort of like everyone preparing for a post-apocalyptic world where banks and governments no-longer exist, but the internet does, only there’s no longer any central servers, just a bunch of wi-fi hot-spots, so you have to pay for things by transferring a cryptographic “object” from your phone to someone else’s phone without having that transaction go through a bank. It will be sort of like technological “mad max”.
