Lots of mental gymnastics involved to make that sound right imo. But to each their own.

Read the image I posted

I did. 🤣

That's mental gymnastics?

It's first principles, systems thinking.

I guess masters thesis is hard to understand for most people..

I'm just an 80 IQ pleb, but information is not energy and bitcoin is neither. Electricity can be used/spent/expended to create information, but that's not a transformation.

Horrible take. Bitcoin is literally physically expensive and systemically secure bits of information people are choosing to represent financial bits of information.
