Money as a Profound Message
Money is described as the most important message one can send. It carries significant weight and is the ultimate form of communication. The importance of money lies in its role as a perceptual apparatus, energy transfer system, and economic language. The desire for scarce goods drives the desire for money, and over time, the most desirable goods become money. Gold has traditionally served as money due to its scarcity and desirable characteristics. Bitcoin, with its fixed supply and technological advancements, presents a better version of gold as a decentralized and incorruptible form of money.
