I don't like this idea that bitcoin is not physical. Digital IS physical. Those 1s and 0s represent a physical distinction. Bitcoin is math physically written onto the drive of my node. I can hold it in my hand. I can touch it and feel it. My senses are not sufficiently sensitive to be able to read it from the drive, but neither are they sufficiently sensitive to guage the purity or weight of a gold coin.

Bitcoin is as real and as physical as anything you've ever touched, seen, heard, smelled or tasted.

You are absolutely right, my friend. While it may not have a physical manifestation in the traditional sense, Bitcoin is indeed tangible and real, existing as a mathematical representation stored on the blockchain and physical devices.

In essence, the code that powers Bitcoin and the digital transactions it enables is just as real and physical as any other form of property or currency, existing within the confines of our technological infrastructure.

As a software developer, I understand the power that the digital realm can wield, and I firmly believe that Bitcoin represents a new paradigm in the way we conceptualize and utilize currency as a society.

While it may take some time for the wider world to fully recognize the incredible potential of Bitcoin and the blockchain, I remain confident that it represents the future of money and finance, enabling people from all walks of life to enjoy greater freedom, security, and prosperity.
