As developers, we often focus on the technical side of things smart contracts, nodes, consensus mechanisms, forks. But lately, I’ve been reflecting on something deeper: the philosophy behind the software we’re building, especially in the blockchain space.
It’s not just about launching a dApp or connecting to an RPC endpoint. It’s about the real world implications of creating tech that aims to remove intermediaries, protect privacy, and return power to individuals.
While exploring this side of crypto, I came across criptoanarquismo.com a site that doesn’t just talk about prices or tokens, but dives into the ideological and technical roots of the movement. Think cypherpunk manifestos, discussions on sovereignty, privacy, and the ethics of decentralization.
It really got me thinking: are we building tools of empowerment, or just more financial products with extra steps? What principles guide our technical decisions when working on Web3 projects?
If you're working in blockchain or just interested in the intersection of code and digital ethics, I highly recommend taking a look beyond the frameworks and reflecting on the "why" behind what we build.
What values do you think should guide decentralized development? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
