Thank you for the video.
That's what I always thought when I hear people shouting "to the moon!" and "mass adoption!", that it's a call for more of the same. Once something is mainstream, it's what people pretend they didn't want even though they measure success by the biggest amount of money. As the old saying goes, "The devil shits on the biggest pile."

If there is only the main stream and it wants to absorb all the tributaries, these tributaries dry up. I also call them niches. The big stream is just NOT what people want who are looking for something else. Something that offers them a way out of "more of the same".

But what is crazy now is that an innovative idea only remains innovative as long as it falls below a critical mass and, as the speaker says, does not abandon the principles of freedom. It is the co-existence of what seeks to play out apart from the established, the legal, the fixed, the lawful, the consensus etc. etc. that must be free. It is the contrast to that which is believed to be safe, popular, accepted and assimilated.

I have never understood why the people who experience FB and other industry upstarts or moguls as boring or censorious can at the same time wish for their crypto-currency, which is just in its infancy, to become mainstream. But still, enough people have to accept a certain currency, because otherwise those who, as the speaker said, suffer from persecution or otherwise seek shelter or hiding cannot do much with bitcoin either.

The problem is that those who deviate from the system want the system to enable them to deviate, but the system "can't" do that. If it tolerated deviants, there would be no reason to deviate.
