I haven't read the diamond age yet, but I know the story and I heard about the "phyle" concept.

Of course there are several other worldwide dissiminated cultural groups, but none of them has a clearly strong, government-proof currency.

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

I think there is a bit more to a phyle than a shared money, but it certainly gives the possibility a solid boost.
