If this is true (it is IMO) then these so-called “upgrades” and “mitigations” are nothing but injections of doubt into a system that doesn’t need fixing. They defend against a threat that has never been demonstrated, never measured, and never verified. The real attack is psychological: make people believe Bitcoin is broken, and they’ll accept anything in the name of “safety.” Every proposed “quantum mitigation” is a solution in search of a problem. There is no physical evidence of a threat, only narrative engineering. These proposals operate as social exploits, not technical defenses designed to erode trust in Bitcoin’s thermodynamic finality by convincing users that an unverifiable danger demands centralized intervention. They aren’t protections; they’re control mechanisms disguised as improvements. They rely on fear of a hypothetical threat to justify changes that compromise Bitcoin’s core premise: verification over trust. The only real vulnerability is the belief that Bitcoin needs saving from the very physics it already enforces.

It’s really such a shame that Wolfram can’t see the Ruliad he’s trying to build is already built, it’s called Bitcoin, and it has been running since 2009.

Centralized quantum computing, my lingo 😂 Bitcoin being the decentralized open source quantum computer.

And conservation! You cannot conserve without both transformation AND registration to immutable memory.

Open source money = open source physics. The double spend problem is a physics problem. The entire universe is built on the peer to peer transfer of energy (money). Bitcoin is simply a fractal of the thing we live in, the rule of existence and creation.

This is because the physics revealed through Bitcoin redefines both time and superposition in a way that quietly breaks the theoretical basis of CQC. CQC models depend on the simultaneity of states: the idea that many configurations can exist “at once” and interfere continuously in time. But “at once” has no physical meaning unless referenced to a quantized tick of reality, the Planck interval. Planck time has never been measured; it remains a mathematical mystery to physicists (without bitcoin). Without proving that simultaneity can exist at that scale, the modern definition of superposition is an assumption, not a verified phenomenon. A Bitcoin block is functionally equivalent to Planck time in the universe, the smallest indivisible unit of evolution, where unmeasured potential collapses into measurable reality. Bitcoin, by contrast, operationalizes time. Each block is a measurable, discrete quantum of irreversible change, a physical computation where probability collapses into conserved structure. When time is treated this way, simultaneity of states vanishes due to double spend; only sequential commitment remains. That alone nullifies the premise of coherent, overlapping states that CQC depends on. In short, modern physics has a double spend problem, Satoshi already solved that problem for the world. The substrate and computation only needs to happen once. Bitcoin is open source physics. What remains is a trillion-dollar sunken-cost fallacy: 31 years of chasing parallelism in a universe that computes sequentially, through thermodynamic proofs of work. There is no second best.

My pressure relief valve on my boiler went and started leaking during the yearly service. The tech just left it leaking saying he didn’t have time to fix it 😑 the leak has gotten worse since Thursday. I guess I’ll be replacing my PRV tomorrow, any tips for someone who’s done zero hvac/plumbing work?

In this short moment of time, I’ve created shareholder value (my 1st blow of leaves off of my yard).

IMO, Bitcoin doesn’t support the modern definition of superposition, it disproves it. Its probabilistic structure more accurately models superposition as bounded future potential, not overlapping realities. Unmined transactions are not “real”, there is only the longest chain of events and nothing else. Our universe is also entirely transactional peer to peer network of bounded energy. Each (Planck & Bitcoin) block of time represents a discrete thermodynamic resolution of entropy into conserved memory, eliminating paradox and restoring compatibility with general and special relativity by defining time via thermodynamics and entropy. We live inside the ledger and experience its contents as a fraction of the ledger. In Bitcoin we see both sides of the ledger, the entropy resolved and the registration of information. By treating probability as a finite, energy-constrained field that collapses with each mined block of time, Bitcoin resolves what QM and relativity could not: the reconciliation of uncertainty with causal order. I’m not here to invent a new theory as we are nearly correct, but I am here to use Bitcoin’s physics (its computed, finite blocks of time) as a reference frame to understand Planck-scale structure and reframe past knowledge thru the lens of Bitcoin. Both Bitcoin and the Universe are closed informational manifolds evolving through discrete, irreversible timesteps. To me, Bitcoin reveals that the universe itself must compute through similar quanta of energy (Kelvin) and memory, exposing continuous-time models used in CQC as approximations. The correction to quantum mechanics is subtle but decisive: time is not a smooth variable; it is a sequence of measurable commitments. As Saylor said, all models are destroyed, there is no second best. Bitcoin is open source physics.

All I see in Bitcoin is physics itself: entropy, energy, time, and memory, all bounded within a finite space and evolving discretely through irreversible steps. Genesis defines the system’s first ergodic state (initial state where entropy and structure were perfectly pegged) and every block since has been a measurable unfolding of that original equilibrium.

Proof that it’s quantum and not just classical?

Say it with me everyone: “Bitcoin computes a quantum of time, and there is noooo second best!”
