TD₿: Bitcoin Astronomy by Dhruv Bansal
TL;DR Bitcoin is a new driver in the galactic expansion of civilization and will play a bigger role in the future story of humanity than any of us now realize.
Hey Bitcoiners,
Yesterday my feed was full of Star Wars content. I had no idea why until I realized it was May 4th (“May the Fourth be with You”).
It immediately got me thinking about the money used throughout the Star Wars movies, The Galactic credit.👇
In the movies, the Galactic credit is widely accepted and used throughout the solar system and between various species across galaxies.
I wondered what traits money like the Galactic credit would have to have in order to become widely adopted across the entire universe.
It would need to be scarce, easy to transact, permissionless, and it would certainly need to hold its value over space and time. You see where I’m going with this…
Bitcoin is energy money that holds its value over space and time. Energy is the fundamental currency of the universe and, therefore, Bitcoin should be widely accepted on any planet in the far future.
Dhruv Bansal is a physicist that dug deep into Bitcoin in space in this mind-blowing post titled “Bitcoin Astronomy” (09/13/2019).
Only Bitcoin would have this ability to transact through space and time, given its scarcity and digital nature.
Are we witnessing the birth of the first intergalactic money? 🚀
Tick tock next block,
