Ich bin nominiert worden und habe aktzeptiert, weil ich das für eine gute Gelegenheit halte, mal den einen oder anderen Standpunkt an die Wand zu schreiben und was zu sagen.
Sowas wie (hole mal aus hinter der Paywall der Foundation hervor):
snip--->
Internationalisation
> If the eye of Sauron is upon you GTFO of Mordor!
The foundation is based in and under the jurisdiction of the US of A. The USA is an absurdly overregulated economy with a regime that is trying to abolish privacy in all aspects of people's lives and thus the most hostile environment for Bitcoin on this planet. The fact that the majority of the current members of the foundation board runs rather big businesses that are dependend on the goodwill of that regime does not really make things better.
It is a no-brainer to demand the foundation being internationalised and based in a more freedom-affine country that embraces innovation instead of trying to keep the status quo by all means. We should promote the creation of several independant foundations, associations, societies or organisations, be they defined geographically or focussed on certain aspects of crypto economics or certain goals of their members.
Any satoshi spent on 'lobbying for Bitcoin in Washington' is an irresponsible waste of money donated by members of the Bitcoin community in good faith. And it will take us exactly nowhere.
Freedom of Transaction
> The trigger to a new economic singularity
Freedom of transaction should actually be listed amongst other basic human rights just like freedom of opinion and freedom of speech. It is not, for the trivial reason that there was never a need to demand it because we simply always had freedom of transaction in our cash-based past.
We are watching a moment in history, where transaction all of a sudden becomes global, instantanious and anonymous from human to human.
Money though is only quantifiable human energy and every transaction is the flow of that energy or value. That means that we are entering an age in which the untraceable free flow of human energy in split seconds around the globe becomes a reality.
This very possibility will change the way we interact, make contracts, conduct business and carry out transactions beyond anything we can now imagine or for which we even have words now. The boost of economic growth and wealth for everybody involved cannot even be envisioned now, we can merely estimate that it will have an impact similar to that of the neolithic or industrial revolutions.
Now even though there are entities in our society that derive their power from controlling, channeling, taxing and permitting or not permitting this monetary flow these days are over with the advent of crypto currency.
Let's promote and foster this new reality of the free flow of human energy for the benefit of all of us!

Ich finde einfach, die Foundation muss mal gehörig ihre Prioritäten ändern. Drum nehm' ich da teil, damit ich so 'ne old-school Bitcoin-Enthusiast-Standpunkte mal wieder auf den Tisch legen kann. Bin da quasi ein Krypto-Konservativer
