The cryptoanarchist vision is forty years old. The theory is complete. The tools exist. Yet we have almost nothing to show for it.

Hi Max, you reveal in the brief excerpt I quote below you do not believe your own premise by the very fact you published this article thinking others might read it. So will you ask, why are you lying to yourself about the nature of reality? Clearly, you recognize the distinction between individual and collective is not binary. It is clear that the reactionary approach to counter collectivism is failing because there is a weak theory as to the nature of the transition, which is quite different from having whisps of a vision for a long term equilibrium.
Until you are ready to overcome the fact that the utopia you envision will not spontaneously emerge from a handful of people using software, you will not maximally contribute to advancing toward various intermediary steps. I am taking a different approach, working toward bringing autonomy in a hierarchical way, starting with the weapons systems that can help weaker nations regain greater sovereignty. This can percolate downward more easily than it is to simply hit tipping points preaching to the choir here.
You think politics doesn't work because you only see the "rules" and "forms" of politics you were told exist. I am making my own way, and building the weapons, not asking for policy changes, but providing tools to shape the nature of things to come.
"First, stop waiting for mass approval. Deprogram yourself from collectivist thought and hoping the masses will wake up. Do not waste time trying to fix politics, win over majorities, or receive mainstream validation. You are on your own for now."
