In this regard I recommend a quick visit to
foxpup's first post on the forum.
At same time, let's mention though not just the Twitter post, but also the direct link to the article, from UniJoin's Medium blog:
The Radical History of BitcoinIn my case I have also enjoyed this week's article that delves into the prehistory of Bitcoin, or the background that made it possible, showing us how wwhen the internet as we know it had not yet been invented the foundations of Bitcoin were already being laid by people committed to privacy and distrustful of large centralized organizations. Of course, governments saw in these movements a threat to their power and tried to put stones in the way but history shows that they did not achieve their goal.
With all that energy and efforts put together by governments over the ast decades to distablize and stagnate the success of decentralization but couldn't achieve their aim. The conviction every lover of privacy and decentralization should hold to heart is that if they the government's couldn't succeed prior to this time when the internet hasn't gained this global acceptance and usage then they will never be able to tarnish decentralization in this internet age. They can only keep on trying based in their pride.
