While it’s true that Bitcoin isn’t a chemical element in the traditional, scientific sense, the term “digital element” can still be meaningful—especially when viewed through a broader lens of technological and societal evolution.
1. New Category, New Language:
Bitcoin was the first truly decentralized digital asset with provable scarcity and an immutable ledger—a foundational breakthrough in computer science, cryptography, and economics. It’s not unreasonable to say that Bitcoin is to the digital world what hydrogen is to the physical one: a base unit from which new forms of value and systems are emerging. So while it doesn’t belong on the periodic table, it could be considered a first principle in the realm of digital value.
2. Embedded in Physical Reality:
Unlike a YouTube video, Bitcoin is not just information—it’s information that is rooted in thermodynamics. The process of mining enforces scarcity through real-world energy expenditure. This physical anchoring gives it a kind of mass-like consequence in the digital space, distinguishing it from mere data.
3. Emergent Properties:
Bitcoin is more than code—it’s a protocol, an incentive system, a network, and a socio-economic phenomenon. Like elements in chemistry, it can combine with other technologies (e.g., Lightning Network, smart contracts) to create entirely new systems. This emergent capability is more than metaphorical—it reflects real structural importance.
4. Language Evolves with Technology:
We often adapt scientific language metaphorically to describe novel inventions. Think of terms like “the cloud,” “firewalls,” or even “virality” in social media. Calling Bitcoin a “digital element” isn’t about literal atomic mass—it’s about recognizing its foundational role in a new layer of civilization.
⸻
So, while scientifically inaccurate by strict definition, calling Bitcoin a “digital element” can still be a valid conceptual frame—one that helps people grasp its foundational, almost elemental role in a new economic and technological paradigm.

-Imagine us as grandpas one day, trying to explain to our grandkids how the fiat system used to (not) work. Tough one?

Satoshi didnt create Bitcoin
He discovered a way for humans to gradually harnest all the energy of the planet to be used at our service : securing our monetary and value network;
making production of energy more efficient as it becomes cheaper in time.
This discovery not only will make wars obsolete as the free market becomes global, but it will propel human race to a Type 1 civilisation on the Kardachev scale.
Thank you Satoshi.

Bitcoin is bound to the laws of physics and energy thru the electicity needed to mine and secure the network . That is what links it to the physical realm.
Bitcoin mining is what makes it real .
Therefor it is the first digital element that exists in the analog world. And it will be proven to be , every 10 minutes , as long as it remains decentralised and secure.

“The more we see UTXOs in the mempool with round amounts in sats — like 150,000 or 35,000 — the more it suggests that people are starting to think in sats rather than in fiat.” Just some thoughts
