Bitcoin was designed to be as decentralised as possible. It turns out this has serious downsides and it’s difficult to pursue the sort of financial revolution it aspires to without social revolution.

This currency chooses different trade-offs which the creators believe will make it more popular because most people don’t need or want trustless transactions. People delegate power for finance, politics and computing not because they are stupid or serfs but because they are willing to sacrifice some autonomy for the speed, ease of use and enforceable contracts which come with a central authority.
