It seems as though the incentives are not aligned within the Bitcoin ecosystem.

Miners seek profit whilst some individual nodes seek integrity and some developers seek change. But change to what?

The other question is how do you balance all these incentives to create a sustainable network for the future?

I think that all of us here that want to see Bitcoin thrive as a means of transfering value and I think that's what Satoshi wants as well.

So how do improve transferring value online to make it more efficient, less costly and trustworthy for all the players?

In my opinion, I think the intended purpose of Bitcoin wasn't to make profit, but to create a utopian society where monetary systems have no value.

Money is just used to access goods and services and I think Bitcoin's aim is to destroy any form of access and provide goods and services for free once the cap is reached.

Sorry if I'm not being too technical but I'm fairly new in the crypto space and I just thought I would share my opinion.

What do you guys think was Satoshi's purpose in creating the Bitcoin protocol amidst the financial crisis of 2009?

I would love to know your thoughts.
