They can’t tell me who to be,
‘Cause I’m not what they see.
Yeah, the world is still sleepin’,
While I keep on dreamin’ for me.
And their words are just whispers
And lies that I’ll never believe.

Fair, but only because he's not a jew and he's surveying from the shoulders of giants. But in the end, he is still in the hobbesian/lockean paradigm like the rest of them and is therefore shit. Rand gets second place for valuing metaphysics and being somewhat aesthetic.

That doesn't rebuke the ECP because those corps still operate based on price signals. Capitalists would argue that there is a balance that capitalism falls back to between too much vertical integration and too little.

One day whole planets might be managed by corporations, but if the context was a galactic civilization with thousands of star systems under its control, then that fact would not be sufficient to disprove the benefits of the price mechanism created by markets. We need to look at the proportion given the scale, not an absolute magnitude of size. And we need to see things over time, because a span of a century may just be an anomaly or transitory effect.

I have. the book predicts the rise of digital currencies based on cryptography (aka crypto) and so it solidified my confidence in buying Bitcoin. The book was written in 1994 and has some eerie predictions and an interesting take on history.

The book predicts that the nation states will gradually fall apart and a new order will arise based around "sovereign individuals" and their extended retainer or social networks. The world will switch to favoring defense and efficiency over offense and expansion in the realm of violence. Basically they predict a sort of neo-feudal ancapistan, but they paint a neutral rather than nightmarish portrait overall.

You can now use Bitcoin if the Internet gets shut down (albeit by having a satellite connection, but still).

This is just the beginning...
