Did the great Nikola Tesla predict Proof of Work (PoW)?
In Soft War, Major Jason Lowery identifies Nikola Tesla as the first to describe PoW (proof of work).
Lowery explains that in 1900 Tesla hypothesized that in the future humanity would be compelled to fight wars using "intelligent machines" that would engage in "electrical power competitions" to settle disputes.
Sounds like #Bitcoin PoW !!
