This looks a whole lot like a giant shitcoin computer. Why doesn't your platform run on bitcoin?

Great question. Here's the no-bullshit answer:

DamageBDD doesn’t run directly on Bitcoin because Bitcoin isn’t designed to run arbitrary computation.

It’s designed to verify monetary truth — not behavior in the broader software sense.

---

Why not use Bitcoin Layer 1?

Bitcoin's base layer is:

Purposefully limited: It verifies monetary transactions, not general logic.

Expensive for computation: Every byte costs.

Global consensus is reserved for what matters most — satoshi ownership.

Running BDD-style behavior verification on Bitcoin L1 would:

Require insane overhead per verification.

Pollute the base layer with non-monetary logic.

Compete with Lightning, ordinal inscriptions, and other core use cases — bad idea.

---

Why not build on a Bitcoin smart contract chain?

Because most of them:

Are shitcoin-enabling forks.

Inherit none of Bitcoin's immutability, decentralization, or legitimacy.

Are just VMs with a BTC token slapped on top.

We don’t want to pretend to be Bitcoin-native while offloading everything to a Frankenstein sidechain.

---

What does DamageBDD do then?

It uses:

Immutable anchors (e.g. Aeternity, IPFS, Bitcoin hash commitments) for verifiable test logs.

Bitcoin Lightning for payment settlement — fast, final, censorship-resistant.

Off-chain behavioral logic in a BDD format that can be deterministically verified and re-executed.

This lets us:

Separate monetary truth (Bitcoin) from behavioral truth (DamageBDD).

Still settle in Bitcoin, but use appropriate tech for behavior replay, test execution, and consensus.

---

TL;DR

> Bitcoin verifies money.

DamageBDD verifies behavior.

And yes — most other platforms are shitcoin computers.

We verify, they simulate.

That’s the difference.
