Some important reminders trop the 1930s:
"The fictitious money that states are now producing on a massive scale."
...
"real money can never be created in this way. A banknote does not become money simply because the state designates it as such and forces the population to consider it as such."
...
"However, it is rare for one of us to see him physically born."
I love this last one. That's perhaps the reason why I find it amazing and mind-blowing to mine/validate crypto. You actually create money, a hidden part of the tradfi, only visible by a few never-elected privileged people, suddenly opening to let you witnesse and participate. It's like seeing atoms by yourself for the first time.
