Satoshi was careful with his words. He had one goal: to empower and protect humanity from that which sought to control and repress it. He understood the nature of good people and bad people. He understood that good people are exploitable: by their needs and by their nature.

Bitcoin was built as a weapon, and as a shield. It was intended to defeat an enemy. And that enemy was irrefutably marked in the very first block. A block which satoshi chose to name and code differently than any other. Though he said few words, those he did say, carry weight.

To understand Satoshi’s intentions; we need only look at his choices, his actions, and their implications. I am certain that Satoshi had a specific goal. I am certain that goal was more important to him anything else. Nothing about his goal, or his actions, involved himself. There is no reason to believe that Satoshi was anything less than a selfless creator who sought to empower and protect good, from that which wasn’t. This is a statement that I will hold and attest as truth, because I am certain that this truth will be proven in the lack of any sound refute.

Facts require the definitions of humans to be established. Truth does not. Truth stands on its own. It is not evidenced by fact, but by the deafening lack of sound contest when it lays itself bare before any and all who wish to challenge it. It is just and fair in itself; there is no opponent to successfully challenge truth in open forum.

I know who Satoshi is because he revealed his truth. A person is not revealed in their identity. The level to which actions and intentions (what we do and what we say) are in congruence, reveals character. Our character is who we are. Identity is not.

Satoshi was a doer, so it is easier to know his truth. He was a person of action. Satoshi understood that without action, there is no good. Without work, words are empty. The words he used, all had use. They had a purpose. He chose specific words to describe the system he developed. For instance, Proof of “Work” is intentional.

Work represents effort. Work has purpose. Work is the addition of “good”.  A system that is proven through the work is a system that is proven by good. It is built upon good work (input that produced a positive result). It is sustained by, and it works, for good. 

The direct work that is put in, through solving each block, has a purpose. It’s purpose is to safeguard, protect, and record the transference of value that represents the product of work. Whether from inside the system or outside of it. Money, in it’s own right, and in a fair system, is meant to represent the value of work.

This will sound redundant, but please read this carefully, I don’t know a better way to relay the implications. The system is built to only work, if there is a continual input of work. It only works, if there is good put in.  The purpose of the system, is to protect and safeguard a record of even more work, work that has occurred inside, or outside the system, and is represented in a quantifiable, numerical representation as bitcoin. 

If there is not continual good work put into the system, the system doesn’t function. If there is no value placed on the functions and purpose of the system, there will be no use for it, and it will fall apart.

It is designed to fall apart without continual proof that a positive outcome is being achieved (blocks being solved). It is built to work only when there is sufficient work put in, and the greater the amount of work put in, the stronger the system becomes.  

There appears to be no indication that the system can be used for destruction. If it is not used for good, it doesn’t work. The system, therefore, is the product of a creator. 

A creator is not merely a producer of something new.  What a creator makes, also supports the ethos of creation; it produces and sustains, and does not destroy or take more than what it adds. 

If it destroys, or takes more than it adds, it is not the product of a creator. It may be the product of an inventor, a producer, or a manipulator. But it is not the product of a creator. A creator brings forth that which challenges the forces that destroy. A creator makes something that is inherently and intrinsically good. 

A creator is by definition; good. Good gives more than it takes.  A creator is known not through his identity, through words, through status, or through attestations by others. A creator is known and proven by the self-sustainment of the creation. A creator is evidenced through the proof that what is created works and benefits, without taking or destroying. Creation is the consequence of true, selfless work. And it is proven by itself. 

 Men can change the way the work is used, they can change the way the work is perceived, but they cannot change the purpose or the design of the system. Nor can they alter the system for destruction.

So why is this all important? Because Humanity is in flux. Humanity overwhelmingly sides with good, and chooses good, but lacks the wisdom to discriminate and determine how to protect and fight for the product of it’s good work. The understanding of good by Humanity, is incomplete. And therefore, it is exploitable. Exceedingly so in a resource controlled system. 

Here are some observations about Good people. These assumptions are based on nature and observation. If you don’t agree with it, or don’t get it, one of us is probably wrong. The thing is, if I am wrong,   Good people value experience over things. Good people endure and tolerate before they will fight or engage in conflict. Good people prefer to give rather than take. Good people use rather than withhold. Good people prefer purposeful work rather than wasteful effort. 

All of the aforementioned aspects make good people highly exploitable in a resource controlled environment. Resources are the necessary things which are needed by all to continue existing. Generally, resources are not of primary concern by most who are good, because they were by nature, always plentiful. The system that existed provided the necessary resources. 

A creator is not merely a producer of something new.  What a creator makes, also supports the ethos of creation; it produces and sustains, and does not destroy or take more than what it adds.  If it destroys, or takes more than it adds, it is not the product of a creator. It may be the product of an inventor, a producer, or a manipulator. But it is not the product of a creator. A creator brings forth what which challenges the forces that destroy. A creator makes something that is inherently and intrinsically good. 

 A creator is not known or proven through their identity, words, status, or attestations of others. A creator is known and proven through the effectiveness of what is created. A creator is proven in their work. The work of a creator furthers their intention, because the intention of a creator is ALWAYS good.  The work is the proof. We can attempt to change the way the work is used, we can attempt to change the way the work is perceived, but we cannot change the nature of the work, nor what it does.  

Resources are also our reminder that we do not sustain ourselves, we are not a product of ourselves. We did not bring ourselves into existence, and all that are here, are only here by the work, gifts, and efforts of the whole. We did not bring ourselves. Our life was given to us.

Please bear in mind, that what I wish to express today, is the product of more than I can express. That what I wish to express will not be perfectly, nor presented in a way that is perfectly received. We are all a product of experience and what we hear and feel is often different

This is why I stress that in life, in our interactions with others, seek more than the words and the way they are read. Seek the intentions. Draw differences not by the things we cannot control, like our identity, but that which we can; our intentions

The second way good people are exploitable is by their nature. The first was by their needs (resources). Good people trust before they suspect. They enjoy the game, not the score. They would rather be in awe, and in wonder, than in control. And they will forgive, not begrudge.

All of these aspects, make good people highly exploitable, and willing to tolerate and endure injustice, without planning for the need to fight, or to protect their goodness.

This is why throughout history, there is a pattern of a large group of good people being controlled by a few bad people. Good people would sooner forget and wipe the slate, than hold contempt in their hearts and seek revenge. Good people are averse to the seeds of true evil.

But all of these things are why humanity is beautiful, and resilient, and powerful, and why our nature is now exploited in such a way as to hide these truths about us. All that we are shown and exposed to, comes from a system which seeks to control us from finding what we are.

Satoshi understood all of this. He understood how exploitable good people are. And he understood how far the reach of the bad can go to obfuscate that which is good. It is why bitcoin was built the way it is. And It is why he chose certain characteristics for the genesis block.

He could not be overt in his goals or intentions which is why he was careful to never state them directly. In its early days, bitcoin was less in need of attention from advocates, than avoiding attention of its enemies. But he would not build a weapon, without marking an enemy.

Most people are aware of the message that Satoshi encoded into the time stamp code. “The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks” The intent here, may seem obvious. But he included much more that indicated the weight on the importance of these words.

Satoshi named block 0, in the original source code, as the “genesis” block. This block was mined six days before the next. The seven days passage from creation to implementation, combined with the name of the block, is hard to ignore. But was it about religion, or was it deeper…

First, we must remove our assumptions and trust that he would reveal his intentions. He was too careful not to. It mattered to much to him to leave us without direction. So once again, look not just to the words, but to the intentions. The book of genesis begins by separation.

The book of genesis is not wrought with ideology. Nor is it wrought with professions of control or decrees by an omniscient ruler. It is a story of an artist. It is a story of the nature of existence. It lays the foundation for what is good, and the counterpart to good.

Light and dark are identified, and separated. Light is identified as good. Dark is both the necessary consequence, and requirement, for the existence of good. Good exists to overcome that which isn’t. Good exists to fill (light) that which has no form (void/emptiness)

Every part of the story lays the foundation, not for a narrative of domination or judgement, but one of creation and giving for the purpose of overcoming emptiness.

It tells a story that all that exists, comes as a product from what was created before it. That all goodness flows from giving, and that to understand the nature of the system, and it’s intention, the basis for that system must be clear and understood.

These themes and intentions are reinforced through more characteristics of the genesis block. Every block, a miner receives a reward for the effort that is put in to the system. In the genesis block; that reward was hard coded to never be spent.

Little known is that Satoshi did not call the entirety of the system a block chain. He referred to it as a time chain. And he described it as a tree like structure. Not a chain of blocks.

Satoshi described it this way because the entire system is built from roots that are good. The roots strengthen the tree. Good strengthens good. Life begets life. Good roots are necessary for a strong tree, but the tree can still perish if it is torn down before it is strong enough to withstand attack.

Furthermore, he most important message yet found in the genesis block is what was included in the coinbase transaction. This is an area where the miner can include some message or bit of information when the block is recorded. In this part, satoshi hid the original message, only reversed.

The implications of the original message, in reverse, in the coinbase transaction, is immense. When all other aspects are considered, this serves as a warning, as a plea, and as a definitive assertion of his intentions. It says: Others who use the system will distort the message

It legitimizes his original message, and it casts a warning about any who will try to distort or detract from that original message. Satoshi was nothing short of a perfect, selfless, good creator. The true depth to what the system can do for good, is past the conveyance of words.

But I will try. The beauty of what he created is that it is both a weapon and a shield. It returns to us the power of our goodness, growing more powerful as it is used, and put to use, for all. Then, it does what we cannot, holding permanent record and accountability to those who are bad.

Satoshi left us, but he did not leave us unprepared. He gave us everything we needed, things that are not in our nature, but that will empower us and protect us from those who wish to exploit us. But the proof, will always be in the work. Not in his work, but ours. Its up to us.

There is little more I can express about Satoshi’s intentions and goals, without taking more liberty with assumptions, and potentially disrespecting a person who was so precise and careful in establishing what was, and was not, important to him. The next statement is my own….

Humanity is overwhelmingly good. Humanity is so good, that billions can be controlled by dozens, and pushed to the edge of survival, before we begin to resort to actions which do not align with our intrinsic composition.

This is worsened and made possible to such extremes because our most basic beliefs have been hijacked. We accept inherently irrational unjust systems as unchangeable. Most of them, we have been trained to perceive them as righteous or fair. We have been taught to be prideful of characteristics, rather than character… We are sensitive to ego, perceiving all manner of things as personal attacks, but no longer sensitive to the suffering of others.

It’s time to fight with the weapons and the defenses we have been given. In the original message, there are three parties identified. The media, the government, and the banks. The significance we can safely infer from this, is that all three have accountability to some level.

The dilemma is one that has left me often in the grips of panic attacks, and sleepless nights…. how can we overcome a system that we can so easily see the flaws within, but are entirely dependent upon for our survival and existence.

I believe that establishing the intent behind those who have control over the system is the point to attack. I believe that if we work together to irrefutably establish bad intent, we will have an axis point to rally behind together to defeat it.

The six largest mass media (news) entities in the united states are for profit companies, that are majority held by financial institutions. So it is of no surprise, that information which highlights negative intent by financial institutions, is rarely presented in the news.

The purpose, the utility, and the value of this project is all contained ,

Art and crypto is a powerful combination. Art unifies. Art brings together and hurdles over that which separates because art, is by itself, an expression of humanity’s desire to create and express. (Things which are inherently good) Crypto can protect that voice and expression.
