Libertarians get angry and irrational when it is stated that the nation state and its power projection is the most significant factor in the wealth of nations.
Note-I am a Bitcoiner with strong left leaning views on economic matters and see Bitcoin as a significant development in providing a much needed competitive alternative to the fiat bankers who have come to own most liberal western democracies by stealth and patronage.
I struggle to understand Libertarian/neoliberal Bitcoiners whose market forces/anti government ideology resulted in bankers taking control of liberal western democracies.
I can appreciate where you are coming from. We currently have a crony capitalism setup and not a free-market capitalism setup. We would never have too big to-fail banks in a free market. I doubt we would even have the monopolies we do today without cronyism. It is the lobbying by big companies that curry favor with politicians across the world that has led to suboptimal capital allocations.

Bitcoin should be apolitical.
