So we don’t have plutocracy in the current fiat money system(s)? Relative inequality is super low and investment opportunities abound for all income levels?

We don’t have a plutocracy in PoW coins like BTC either right? Super cheap and easy to spin up a mining operation I heard.

Given that nearly every miner and large exchange/business tried and failed to force changes to BTC, I'd argue that influence of plutocrats on the fundamental properties of Bitcoin is significantly lower.

Failure of the New York Agreement is certainly more reassuring than never-ending hard forks.

Yeah, and any discussion surrounding hard forks was allowed right in the open on /r/bitcoin and bitcointalk, leading to informed node operators.. oh wait, that didn't happen, people got banned.
