You think #bitcoin came from God? Or just from Men? #asknostr

I think it came from Satoshi so most likely a man. But could have been a woman too
Since the code is full of flaws that even I was able to understand, I am pretty sure it was a man’s work.
In one sense, all things come from God. But the simple answer is: made by man under the common grace of God.
All *good* things. And since it is technology that makes playing by the rules not only easier but the only feasible path, I would definitely call it good, and thus from God in the same sense all good inventions come from him. Unlike compound interest on loans.
Ha, yes. I think one can say, biblically, that God brings evil as well (not that he creates it, but that he brings evil and calamity as a means of his sovereign justice and will) but I settled for *all things* thinking "how complicated and nuanced do I want to get here?" 😅
Ultimately, yes, all good things—all blessings—come from his gracious hand, and are either the overflow of his special grace to his people or his common grace to all people, and often some mixture of both.
And bitcoin is a blessing.
