Chapter Chapter 2 in The Bitcoin Dilemma, 2022, pp 13-18 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Some among us are driven to create, without thought of personal gain, or for that matter whether the value of their creations will be recognized by others. These individuals take profound ownership in concepts they create and guard the intrinsic beauty of their works with the pride of an artist. Stories abound of artists who destroy their works rather than have them coopted and warped by others, just as the protagonists in the novels of Ayn Rand, who inspired many cypherpunks. SatoshiNakamoto, Satoshi stated, “The nature of Bitcoin is such that once version 0.1 was released, the core design was set in stone for the rest of its lifetime.”
