#Bitcoin development is often compared to the "early Internet".
I've been thinking it's more like #Linux:
- Assembled from decades of past research.
- Reviewed and improved by thousands of passionate and brilliant enthusiasts.
- Can be and is "forked" for different use cases or approaches.
- A "base" system upon which modules can be connected to expand functionality.
- The invisible layer upon which a new world is built.
- People depend on it constantly, without ever interacting with it directly.
