In a reply to Blockstream CEO Adam Back, Vitalik Buterin said he disagreed with the assumption of a so-called master architect that the original cryptocurrency (Bitcoin) was also a social system designed by humans.
The fact that cryptocurrency proponents consider Satoshi Nakamoto’s protocol to be perfect proves that they are not actually rejecting the master architect hypothesis.
Previously, Buterin said that despite his love for decentralization and democracy, he is more inclined than the average person to agree with the intellectual elite on many policy issues.
