Mining isn't killing the planet either, mining is securing a ledger. These technologies are for the first time in human history, divorcing the power of the purse from governments, who have only ever abused it. It is the human rights issue of our age, rendering things like inflation and financial censorship impossible without resorting to threats of violence. They provide an open, public ledger enabling new forms of ownership in a trust-less, transparent system, we can use to organize solutions previously mired in human bureaucracy.
