#Bitcoin #MoreThanMoney
"Just like the term “cloud” hides critical information about where bits of information are being physically stored, the use of object-oriented software abstractions like “coin” for proof-of-work protocols disguises the fact that the bits of information that are being metaphorically described as a “coin” represent state changes occurring outside of our computers, not inside of them. Because people don’t understand computer theory and they aren’t paying attention to the bottom of the tech stack, they overlook highly unique properties of proof-ofwork protocols which have a potential to change the game of cyber security or even change how humans perceive cyberspace."
