#2.1 - Is Bitcoin the exception to the rule..?

I agree that the real meaning of money is very abstract to some people (at least, in the general population), but I wonder if it's not at least partly wanted from governments to do so. The least people question it, the more power they get.

I like Andreas Antonopoulous' coining money as an "abstraction of value", which is really what FIAT money is, when you think about it... From pokemon cards, to marbles, and bubblegum stickers - we we're all inventing our own money before we even knew what we were doing - and someone decided to scale that concept and force us all to adapt it... IMO
