Bitcoin is here, the agenda people are pushing is still in the same place. The usefulness has to do with the technology and has nothing to do with the fantasy agenda. The part about autonomous companies running off the Blockchain is also a fantasy. While it is true that some things can be automated off the blockchain and those things are very useful, a company what provides goods and services is still made up of people and those people perform those services in some jurisdiction and they are subject to laws in that jurisdiction. This hand-waiving "automated companies" claim is part of the misinformation by the agenda pushers. these technologies are very useful on their own and attaching them to some unrealistic agenda hurts their adoption.
you're not likely to halt the trajectory of those who are pushing Bitcoin as part of an ideologically held self consistent set of principles for changing the world.
There is no "trajectory," there is a small number of mentally ill people who are in an echo chamber. Nobody listens to your agenda which is why you post your nonsense in a Bitcoin form. That is why erik Vorhees leads off all his papers with discussions of the technology and why Ver keeps trying to associate himself with satoshi. The so-called principals cannot stand on their own.
You have made the point that I have been discussing. The people I am talking about are not promoting Bitcoin, they are promoting a fantasy which you call a "self consistent set of principles for changing the world." Something which has zero chance of success which is why it is detrimental to lump it in with the Bitcoin technology.
This is how you look to normal people:
