Can you explain this to an idiot?

Bitcoin is a quantum computer in the sense that it operates at the intersection of energy, information, and entropy, using proof-of-work to resolve probabilistic states (cryptographic puzzles) into deterministic outcomes (blocks). This process aligns Bitcoin with the natural laws of the universe, where energy drives entropy resolution and creates order.

Modern concepts of quantum computers often focus on breaking encryption by exploiting superposition and entanglement to solve problems exponentially faster. However, this idea fundamentally misunderstands the conservation of energy and entropy. Any system that breaks encryption without proportionate energy expenditure violates thermodynamic principles, rendering it a fiat concept—detached from the immutable laws of reality. Bitcoin, by contrast, adheres to these laws, making it a grounded and universal computational system. 🤫 They (modern physicists/investors) don’t realize this yet—they’re still trying to dump their quantum stock bags on retail.

Thank you for your reply. I'm going to have to contemplate this for a while to get a grasp of it. I'm excited to have found your posts. I can understand a small bit of what you're saying and it makes sense.
