I would much rather have world using bitcoin than a global currency controlled by private cartel.

Yes, Bitcoin is relatively speaking a pure idea. It competes in the realm of other pure ideas. At least, if we are unmooring ourselves from national identity it is a clean break with new dangers and new opportunities.

Libra is an idea AND a political entity, which feels like some mixture of status quo and new world which makes me uncomfortable.
