Concordo🙏🏼

Possibly my favorite thing about bitcoin is how it demonstrates the distinction between divine and human creation through the popularization of the term "fiat". We do in fact live in a made-up world, a world of artifice, constructed by a pure act of divine will. This is in fact a good thing.

But when man imagines himself on God's throne, taking it upon himself to "let it be" in rebellion to the original act of creation on which all the rest is premised, the result is a chimeric and mangled vision of what once was called "good".

The only way to reconcile man's agency with God's is through our submission to His transcendent Goodness, and the exercise of faithful stewardship and love for what He made. A rejection of "invention" in favor of discovering the patterns and emergent complexity embedded in reality.

Bitcoin is not a human artifice, it is a discovery and re-articulation in mortal terms, as his emissaries, of the deep beauty embedded in the world he gave us to rule over, for its good and His glory.
