I don't believe Facebook or Google was started with the intent to make money, although I'm sure they thought it could be a potential byproduct if their ideas panned out. Nor was the internet (WWW specifically). And most certainly, neither was bitcoin. Just because something might occur as a consequence of an endeavor does not make it the motivation for said endeavor. But I'm more than certain we'll just have to agree to disagree.
How, exactly, is "I'm gonna make a new currency" not setting out to make money?
