Money as a Social Protocol and Clues for Worth
Money is considered the world's first social protocol through which clues about the worth of things are invisibly left for each other. The exchange of money provides information and signals about value across long distances. However, this social protocol has been corrupted and hijacked by various entities, leading to a lack of honest and truthful communication. Bitcoin offers a solution by replacing the corrupted protocol with one that allows for individual approximation of truth at a higher rate. By organizing around a shared consensus enabled by Bitcoin, we can approximate truth and create a more prosperous and better world.
