Read_198 – Unpacking Bitcoin’s Social Contract [Hasu]

“When Satoshi Nakamoto invented bitcoin, he did not invent a new social contract. Satoshi did something else—he leveraged technology to solve many problems of past implementations and implemented the old contract in a new and better way.” – @hasufly
Hasu brings us another great article with Part 2 of “The Skeptics Guide to Bitcoin.” What becomes clear when we understand both Bitcoin and money as a social contract? Can it answer some of the more complex philosophical debates within the Bitcoin ecosystem? Listen to find out.
