Wars Nobody ask the important question: WHO start wars? Individuals or states/govs? Just by using Bitcoin as money, you solve it, because any state could not take your money (bitcoins) to fund wars. Nobody sane and with a lot of bitcoins will say, ok here are my BTC go and kill everybody in that other country.
To me, fiat = war or bitcoin = anti-war is the craziest thing to think about / the hardest for nocoiners to actually start thinking about.
To my understanding, fiat was even created because the US couldn't fund wars on a Gold standard. The Vietnam war was too expensive so other countries lost confidence in the US dollar. So they started to demand their Gold. The US gov responded with the "Nixon Shock": to "protect the US dollar against speculators".
Do you share this view, @DarthCoin?

iat = war or bitcoin = anti-war

To sustain that, here I put a list of all documentaries that PROVE that. Especially:
But anyways, I always recommend that full list to any nocoiner, first thing to watch and learn BEFORE going on the Bitcoin rabbit hole.
