Overemployed logic weathers the edges and frays the mind. There can only be one meaningful and pithy reply to what’s a bitcoin?

The preference expressions [of Bitcoin] are not entirely new, given motivations of thrift and dreams of avarice which have produced the transforming modern economic canon, lust for money and ecstasies of gold down through times.

The Memory Problem

Cognitive dysfunction and disorientation of [time] and space may be parallel to the utility money serves in bargaining among multiple players — where our thinking isn’t as straight as it perhaps could be.

Convergence through computational hardness “making work” figurative [to] a chain of optimal honesty means Bitcoin only need to be stable and straight — in respect of — its own algorithmic hashing standard.

Evolutionary Potent Game Machine

That such a game of honesty has arisen among competing chains and [token] gestures shows [the] flow of signatures, energy and motion in Bitcoin isn’t a standing to the sophomoric crypto-anarchist dislike of banks.

[That] mathematics could be socialised through brute force proofing creates an allure so dark, contrasting, tanned, deep and rich; I wouldn’t hesitate — not for one moment.
