I am fascinated by Tim May's crypto-anarchy. Unlike the communities
traditionally associated with the word "anarchy", in a crypto-anarchy the
government is not temporarily destroyed but permanently forbidden and
permanently unnecessary. It's a community where the threat of violence is
impotent because violence is impossible, and violence is impossible
because its participants cannot be linked to their true names or physical
locations.

Annual reminder that if you are enough of a bitcoin fan that you spend time on bitcoin twitter, you should read bmoney by Wei Dai. Very interesting to reflect on what parts made it into bitcoin, what parts didnt, why that is, and the differences.
