Part 7/11:
Lessons from the Internet: Innovation and Openness
Drawing lessons from the emergence of the Internet, the speaker advocates for a neutral and permissionless technological environment. Just as the Internet allowed anyone to publish content or innovate without approval, Bitcoin offers a platform where individuals can develop new financial tools and services independently—without permission.
This permissionless innovation means anyone with technical skills can create or deploy new cryptocurrencies, smart contracts, or financial applications, transforming the landscape of finance and beyond.
