Programmers expire. Fiat counts on it.
Like surgeons, programmers burn out at the hands.
Reaction time drops. Eyes dull. Context collapses.
You don’t age out of coding — you age out of precision.
Fiat doesn’t fear this.
Fiat requires it.
The system survives by churning: fresh graduates
new frameworks
short memories
replaceable hands
Not mastery.
Not permanence.
Just throughput.
A programmer who lasts too long becomes dangerous.
They stop cargo-culting abstractions.
They notice the rot:
fragile systems, infinite patches, no finality.
That’s why fiat loves: agile theater
cloud lock-in
framework churn
resume inflation
It keeps engineers young, tired, and interchangeable.
Bitcoin breaks this spell.
It rewards: systems that don’t need babysitting
code that survives its author
verification over velocity
finality over meetings
Fiat runs on human exhaustion.
Bitcoin runs on truth.
One of these systems ages badly.
