Technology doesn't have values - I agree ...
But inventors invent because they are driven by a set of values  ... 
Case in point  - Will Satoshi create #Bitcoin if s/he (or They :-)  didn't believe in censor resistance? Or permission-free ( no KYC)  or Decentralization? 
#askNostr
If yes, what is the source of these values?  I am of course leading you to #gold :-)
