A few articles before it referenced BTC (in brief or in passing), but this article had a new narrative: Bitcoin for censorship-resistant payments.
How about an entire currency based on peer-to-peer technology?
@orionwl thought Wikileaks accepting #Bitcoin would be a “great moment.” @jgarzik argued it might encourage governments to attack the network.

After all, he argued #BTC was then increasingly being used in trade.
At that time, someone running the software could expect to receive 50 BTC every 3 weeks.
The accepted thesis was bitcoins had value as it was payment “for services and goods.”
Given the internet censorship, this censorship-resistance made Bitcoin a powerful tool.
No, but he speculated it could be a tool to inhibit government overreach on the internet.
He left the BitcoinTalk forum, never to return, the next day.

World economies currently suffer four major redistribution challenges:
The most important is increasing government stealth use of the monetary system to confiscate assets from productive actors.
/2
That process is exacerbated by "Cantillon Effect" transfers to interest groups close to government ("the entitled class," public sector workers, the medical industrial complex, academia, etc....), which is destroying much of that wealth /3
The shadow nature (see Keynes) of government inflation makes the process unidentifiable, un-addressable and undemocratic.
The biggest victims (America's poorly educated young) are unequipped to counter generational confiscation tactics of today's wily senior beneficiaries. /4
Government control of the numéraire in key economic statistics (GDP, inflation, etc...) makes it impossible for economic actors to measure progress and liabilities. /5
