Part 7/13:
Reflecting on Herman Melville’s "Bartleby," Kas champions radical individual choices—refusing participation in violent or unjust systems. He advocates for a philosophy of non-aggression and passive resistance, leveraging Bitcoin as a means of asserting non-complicity with state or corporate violence.
This stance aligns with the non-aggression principle shared by libertarians—those that posit that the only legitimate use of force is self-defense. Kas envisions Bitcoin as an enabler of this ethos, allowing individuals to opt-out of state-controlled violence and the global arms race driven by technological escalation.
