Some aspects of #Bitcoin are so novel and paradigm-shifting that it is difficult for me to grasp them as reality. For example:
• Digital immutability
• Digital scarcity
In these early days of the computing era, it generally seems self-evident that any digital data can -almost by definition - be copied and edited.
BUT....then along comes #Bitcoin, with its brilliant cooperative construction of cryptography and energy and networking and incentives...
I keep returning to these concepts, and turning them over in my mind. I mull them over daily, both to understand them and also to understand their significance. If they are real, and it appears they are, they cannot help but drastically change the world.
