I think its real, you think its real, but I am searching for a universizable definition for real. Its easy to assume something is real when you can touch it, but you can't touch bitcoin. I could say bitcoin is real based on assumptions about the node software, the block hash, the fixed supply etc., but that is a different set of requirements at first glance than how you would normally determine if a physical object is real, collectors items aside.
Any elaboration on the "relationship" between the subjective and the objective?
