After reading Dan Connolly's recent post about blocks, he confirmed my suspicion on what I have pondered over the past couple years.
Satoshi is an unappreciated marketing genius. The whitepaper was a marketing pitch directed to many different people & groups. The veiled genius behind Satoshi's whitepaper was that it left the narrative/story of BitCoin as a free-for-all & completely up for grabs; competition in it's purest form. However, I do firmly believe that BitCoin has always had it's own agenda and that entails one coin to rule them all. This can only be achieved once humans made every possible decision/choice on the decision tree that is 'crypto'. We have passed that point now, for the most part. All the branches will collapse back into the tree over time. It's a long road ahead, but it has begun.
