I believe that the Founding Fathers of the United States inscribed the idea that liberty is inherent to life in the Declaration of Independence.
The mere existence of the idea now facilitated a reality in which liberty was to be demanded.
Each individual reclaims their inherent right to liberty, as expressed in the Declaration of Independence, and now too expressed in the form of Bitcoin’s code.
While the Declaration of Independence proclaimed the idea and theory of self sovereignty, Bitcoin created the physical implementation of such property rights, allowing the manifestation of such liberty to proliferate in reality.
As much as the printing press led to the proliferation of education, writing and reading — which were necessary for such a thing as the Declaration of Independence to occur — the internet enabled Bitcoin.
