#Bitcoin epistemology answers “how do you know?”
There are 4 ways:
1. Experience - Supreme way of knowing. You were there, you did it yourself.
2. Replication - Independent sources give the same answer. Next best after direct experience.
3. Audit - Peek under the hood. Read the source material. Deep dive on the lore. (Better than nothing.)
4. Delegation - Somebody told you so. “Trust me bro”
Your job as Bitcoiner is to move up this list in all aspects that matter to you.
