God doesn't need a plan B. He never fails to accomplish exactly what he intended the first time round.

Exactly. I think bitcoin is just more evidence of his love, grace, mercy, and faithfulness to his creations in the modern age.

Literally, psalms 136:26 & Ephesians 2:7

I also think of it in terms of God's restraining grace, whereby he keeps us from going as far down the road to depravity as we otherwise might go.

One means of doing so is the civil government, which he ordains in order to "carry out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer." (Romans 13:4) But what is it that keeps the sin of the civil government in check? For thousands of years it has been the inability to print gold and silver willy-nilly.

So, that all changes in the 20th century, and near the beginning of the 21st, we see Bitcoin come on the scene? I believe Bitcoin is God's new means of restraining the corruption of the civil magistrate.

Interesting. I hadn’t thought about it from that perspective. Bitcoin is truly a blessing.
