Human beings are selfish by nature.
Bitcoin doesn’t try to change this, but instead leverages it. The protocol is structured so that each participant, by pursuing their own interest, ends up strengthening the entire system.
That’s the genius of Bitcoin: it turns selfishness into emergent altruism. Here, you don’t need to “trust” in the goodness of others; you just need to know that the system rewards correct behavior. This creates a balance where everyone has an incentive to play fair.
Honesty isn’t required—it’s incentivized. And it works.
