Nature implemented the difficulty adjustment before Satoshi did.

Bitcoin behaves like a fixed thermodynamic chamber.

Avogadro’s law shows that nature allocates a constant number of energy events per geometric volume, and Bitcoin reflects this principle perfectly.

The Bitcoin network enforces a constant time (block interval/temperature) and constant volume (block size/volume).

These two together define Bitcoin’s transaction throughput envelope.

This is Bitcoin’s “container.”

It does not grow with user demand.

Difficulty (pressure) adjusts so that the number of energy events (hashes) per volume remains invariant.

As the number of miners increases, the system expands the difficulty so the “pressure” stays constant.

In this graph, the steps represent the difficulty epochs applied to Avogadro's Law.

A total energy accounting system requires 3 invariants:

🔹A constant rate of measurement (a clock).

🔹A mechanism that normalizes unequal energy inputs

🔹A way to convert energy expenditure into a single comparable unit.

Historically, we have never had all three because:

🔸Currencies inflate

🔸Commodity weights vary

🔸Requirements for external governance or calibration

🔸No system self-calibrates based on energy input

Bitcoin changes this.

Bitcoin behaves like a natural law, not a human standard.
