Mind carefully the terms, models, and (language) images that are to represent Bitcoin:

Freud writes in 1921: "The discovery of radium has confused the explanatory possibilities of the physical world by as much as it has enlarged them, and the recent insight of the so-called theory of relativity has had the effect of reducing the confidence of many of its uncomprehending admirers in the objective credibility of science."

He also mentions, that Einstein resited but was powerless in the end.

Imagine Einstein had chosen "theorie of relations" or "relational theory" instead.

Original: "„Die Entdeckung des Radiums hat die Erklärungmöglichkeiten der physischen Welt um ebensoviel verwirrt als erweitert, und die jüngst gewonnene Einsicht der sogenannten Relativitätstheorie hat bei vielen ihrer verständnislosen Bewunderer die Wirkung gehabt, deren Zutrauen zur objektiven Glaubwürdigkeit der Wissenschaft zu verringern.“

(cf. Freud 1921, XVII, Psychoanalysis and Telepathy, p. 28)
