I'm a violinist, and a few years ago, when I first started to learn about Bitcoin, I wrote a post that said, "art is the act of creating meaning through friction." Something that really stands out to me about your ideas is how tethered they are to the importance of meaning in the process of resolving entropy. I feel like I have a very experiential relationship to this. Through trial and error I have landed on a process of practice that basically says that I create sonic energy through my instrument with my hands, and direct this energy towards meaning through the pattern of pitches and rhythms that exist in the work I am practicing. What's interesting is that the best results come when I choose to observe the music as it appears from the chaos of vibrational energy, instead of actively working to manipulate this energy into shaping the music as I imagine it. It's like my purpose as an acting being is to produce an environment in which meaning, which has been there all along, is able to emerge, and that my recognition of this meaning is what allows it to exist, but I am not responsible for managing it or manipulating it. I came to this through experimentation and trial and error, not through a preconceived theory. There is nothing provable here that can be used to support a thesis, but I thought you might find it interesting.

Thank you. In all honesty I was pretty sure I knew your answer, I just wanted the explanation, which as expected, did not disappoint. This could change my whole world view if I'm able to square it all in my head. I believe I'm about to go down a rabbit hole...

Is it possible that unchosen possibilities are chosen as well using the work of a parallel existence?

Thank you for your fantastically detailed explanations. I'm truly fascinated and really appreciate these responses. I have another question perclating but I will wait until it's fully formed to ask it. Cheers!

I'm just beginning to understand your thesis I think and it's amazing. One question- I'm interested in the concept of "unresolved potential." Is there energy within that potential? And if so what happens to it when the entropic process chooses a different state?

Incredible...

Sweet! I'm honored

So bitcoin is like a virtue pump- collecting the actions of good and honest actors and discarding the waste. It's like moral evolution. Survival of the virtuous!

If you don't cut corners, learning can be an exponential process.

Absolutely...which is why with every day that goes by when we collectively agree not to increase it's supply is further evidence that we are worthy caretakers of this divine gift with which we have been entrusted. It is proof that as actors in the universe, we will collectively choose our best future. The success of bitcoin represents the redemption of those who choose to benefit from it's existence.
