The only place in our culture that you encounter the idea of money as truth is in Bitcoin. It’s a distinguishing feature that separates Bitcoiner’s from everyone else and it’s a big part of the reason I have trouble communicating back across the chasm with the uninitiated. The fiat construct of money is dirty, slimy and associated with scammers, self promoters and politicians. So talking about money has become impolite and no one wants to admit that they don’t understand it even though they spend their lives in service to it. Introducing the idea of money as the ultimate social truth breaks the paradigm, but it impossible to describe what Bitcoin is without eventually arriving at borderline spiritual truths about the nature of right and wrong. Bitcoin is truth. It’s hard for most to see that thing that has been the cause of so much suffering (money) when properly tuned is the most powerful salve against human suffering ever invented.
