BUT that doesn't change what the technical side of Bitcoin makes out of it. - A censorship-resistant, self-sovereign asset that could weaken political strongholds.
you might want to check out the developers moderation policies.. not so "censorship-resistant", but atleast you admit you see them as "sovereigns" (kings) for you to idolise
i personally am a bitcoin maximalist, but i can be a realist too and call out its central points of failure. i dont idolise the devs as gods, i idolise bitcoin not the governance structure of it
