The Politics of Bitcoin

Software as Right-Wing Extremism (Forerunners)

David Golumbia

This digital publication, part of the Forerunners: Ideas First series, delves into the political ideologies behind the promotion and use of Bitcoin and blockchain technologies. The Politics of Bitcoin exposes the surprising extent to which far-right political thought influences the cyberlibertarianism supporters of Bitcoin embrace. The book offers insight into the economic and political ideas that fuel the cryptocurrency movement, drawing on the work of scholars and thinkers ranging from Milton Friedman to Federal Reserve conspiracy theorists.

David Columbia"s book "The Politics of Bitcoin: Software as Right-Wing Extremism" does show that crypto has an extreme right wing ideology even if it is only a patina used to cover utter capitalistic greed and selfishness. They even love to destroy the environment to profit!      source
