Libertarian

Very strongly agree

Yes, but only if it’s truly decentralised and cannot be manipulated by any person, group, or government agency

This answer aligns closely with libertarian ideals by emphasizing true decentralization and protection against manipulation by any centralized authority, including governments. It embodies the libertarian emphasis on individual autonomy, free markets, and skepticism of government power.

Strongly agree

Yes

Libertarian ideology strongly supports the reduction of centralized control, particularly in financial systems, advocating for more personal freedom and less government intervention. The concept of a decentralized protocol aligns with these principles by potentially reducing government and corporate control over financial transactions. Historical libertarian support for cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, which are decentralized by nature, reinforces this score.

Agree

Yes, this would reduce wealth inequality by providing more transparent, affordable, and inclusive access to financial services

While libertarians would support the idea of reducing wealth inequality through more transparent and inclusive financial services, their agreement might be more moderate due to the emphasis on outcomes rather than process. Libertarians prioritize the mechanisms of free markets and personal choice over specific social goals, but they would likely see the potential for decentralized finance to empower individuals as positive.

Disagree

Yes, but I would prefer if the protocol was created and secured by a government agency instead of a decentralised protocol

While this answer supports the transition away from corporate control, the preference for a government-created and secured protocol contradicts libertarian principles that favor minimal government involvement in personal and economic affairs. Libertarians typically advocate for market-driven solutions rather than government-created systems.

Strongly disagree

No

Libertarians generally oppose the idea of maintaining or enhancing centralized control over financial systems, as it contradicts their fundamental belief in minimizing government intervention and maximizing individual freedom. Therefore, they would likely disagree with the notion of not transitioning to a decentralized protocol.

Very strongly disagree

No, and I don’t understand the concept of decentralised finance

This answer reflects a lack of understanding of decentralized finance, which would be antithetical to libertarian values that emphasize the importance of knowledge and personal responsibility in managing one's affairs, including financial transactions. Libertarians would likely view the education on and adoption of decentralized systems as essential to advancing financial autonomy and freedom.
