Connecting decentralization + obfuscation process of file sharing to digital currency. Rough draft: • Beenz/Flooz → FTP and IRC • DigiCash → MojoNation (visionary, too early) • e-gold → Napster • Bitcoin → Limewire/Kazaa/eDonkey • Zcash → BitTorrent Thoughts?

Limewire and Kazaa are applications. BitTorrent was a protocol it’s like the difference between ETH and a dapp.
