It is what shills hired by the government wish the libertarian philosophy was.

A proof of stake currency is a sovereign corporation, and its currency is shares in that corporation. A normal corporation derives its identity and corporateness from a grant of identity from the sovereign. A sovereign corporation would derive its corporateness from the fact that everyone uses the same cryptographic protocol because everyone else is using that protocol. A sovereign corporation is something that I am sure that Bat Soup would regard as suspiciously like a state.
