Why is Bitcoin interesting? My fascination with Bitcoin lies in its deep connections between technology, economics, and philosophy. It’s highly political and a much-needed alternative to arbitrary monetary policies. It’s dismissed by the ignorant and celebrated by those making an effort to understand it. Its beauty grows the more you learn about it.

My touchpoints with Bitcoin so far: First, I ignored it, then I ridiculed it, I missed the train and started learning. I have dabbled in Cardano but am coming back full circle to the genesis coin.
