This might be really dumb because I don’t study physics so I apologize up-front. But one thought (and yes I feel like a crazy person):
The one thing that changes within Bitcoin is the difficulty adjustment which is directly tied to the amount of energy that is being directed at it.
Meaning Energy is the one thing that is variable, theoretically making it the one thing that could be infinite(or continuous)?
Did Satoshi know that this would give the answer to humanity on how to create unlimited power?
And he knew humanity was driven by greed so launched it as a new form of money??
