Bitcoin has created an economic incentive completely unique in world history: a direct monetary reward for finding the cheapest and most efficient energy.
If you throw 6 dice at once, which collide with each other and against a wall, deterministic chaos occurs (a classic dynamical system where even the smallest differences in initial conditions – hand position, throw angle, airflow, and surface roughness – make the outcome completely unpredictable).
An overkill number of dice rolls (such as ~300 rolls) acts as an entropy extractor, ensuring that the 256-bit number output by SHA-256 has the maximum possible entropy density and is completely immune to physical dice tricks or imperfections.
There is so much noise in the world, media noise, etc. But let's make the best noise for ourselves: 200-400 dice rolls of BIP-39 24-word (secret) final noise.
Currently, there are only 3 blockchains that have a hash rate large enough for real PoW: bitcoin, bitcoin cash, and monero. They also have absolutely no owners. They also have decentralized nodes (bitcoin has 100,000+ nodes). PoS does not meet any conditions at all.
Satoshi's logic (PoW + UTXO + Timestamp): "We trust no participant or their clock. We trust ONLY the chain where the most irreversible physical work (PoW) has been demonstrated and where each block contains the mathematical timestamp of the previous block."
Anyone who understands the original idea of ​​blockchain — to create a system free from human corruption and arbitrary decisions — will sooner or later return to the pure, reliable foundation of PoW and UTXO.
