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?

I think without showing how one technology built on another/used similar ideas (zcash->bitcoin, bitcoin->e-gold/digicash), the parallel can be a bit confusing. putting them on a timescale may also help:https://twitter.com/random_walker/status/902942266272174081 …

also, a network for sharing files feels more commoditized vs a mechanism to securely generate and transfer value (whose p2p network is just one part of the whole system). feels like latter is a bit broader in scope
