Bitcoin is the Tao. altcoins are used as tools: Encrypting the world with the understanding of the Taoist Ching

The beginning of the "Tao Te Ching" says: The Tao can be told, but it is extraordinary. A name can be named, very famous. The beginning of the nameless world, and the mother of all things. In the crypto world, "Bitcoin" is the "Tao" - the source of the essence, the root of order, invisible, inaction, desireless, and perpetuated. We can rewrite it like this: "The coin that can be named is not the eternal coin. The chain that can be defined is not the limitless chain." Bitcoin is like "no name", which does not focus on any functions, does not rely on the team, and does not promise profits. It exists and is trustworthy. Altcoins are "famous" things: they have specific functions, specific roadmaps, and specific narratives - they arise because of "name" and will also be destroyed because of "name". The Tao Te Ching says: If you have no desire to see its wonder, if you have desire to see its beauty. Rewrite it as: “Free from speculation, you see essence unformed. Chasing yield, you see only the manifestation.” Altcoins often promise a “use case”, a “breakthrough”, and a “future narrative.” They guide people to chase ups and downs in the torrent of desire, but they will never see the essence of the crypto world. Only by letting go of short-term desires and stopping obsession with "functionality" can we truly see the deep beauty of Bitcoin's order - it does not rely on any application, it is the ultimate application itself. The Tao Te Ching says: Existence and non-existence are born, difficulty and ease are formed, length and short are compared, and high and low are inclined. Rewriting it as: "BTC and Altcoins define each other. Soundness and speculation give rise to one another." Bitcoin and altcoins do not exist in isolation, they are mutually reborn. The hustle and bustle of altcoins makes people see the tranquility of Bitcoin better, and the fragility of altcoins contrasts the solidity of Bitcoin. When people experience round after round of collapse of functional copycats, they realize that Bitcoin does not need prosperity. It does not rely on future fantasies, but on the order that has been verified in reality. The Tao Te Ching says: A sage takes care of things that are inaction and does not speak. Rewriting it as: "The Bitcoiner teaches not by shilling, but by holding. He builds not by noise, but by signal." A true believer in Bitcoin does not rely on calling orders, not making road maps, or drawing pie. He doesn't show off or argue, he just quietly runs the full node and quietly holds his Bitcoin. The belief in Bitcoin is not promoted, but is reflected in silently "hold" and in every verification against censorship. It is better than a thousand words with silence. The Tao Te Ching says: Retirement after success is the way of heaven. Rewriting it as: "The chain settlements, the block confirms, the miner retires. That is the path of heaven." Although Bitcoin has its originator, Satoshi Nakamoto, he has long since retired silently, has not cashed out or manipulated it. His disappearance is the most powerful design in itself. Most altcoin "teams" are difficult to truly leave. The founders either openly or secretly influence the direction. The reserved tokens and frequent updates form a chain of control that is difficult to cut off. Bitcoin’s “ownerless” and “unchangeable” are the key to its eternal success. The Tao Te Ching says: Learning will increase day by day, and Tao will decrease day by day. It is damaged and then damaged, so as to do nothing. Rewrite it as: "Altcoins add layer upon layer. Bitcoin subtracts until only truth remains." Altcoins are always added: add function, add abstraction, add complexity. Each round of narrative relies on new packaging, new nouns, and new modules. Bitcoin is always doing subtraction: removing centralized dependencies, removing artificial adjustments, and removing complex protocols. What is left behind is a minimal system that requires no trust, no changes, and can be verified by anyone. The Tao Te Ching says: If you do nothing, you will do nothing. Rewrite as: "Do not build. Secure. Do not promise. Deliver. Do not change. Be the change." Bitcoin is not a "project", it is a "principle"; it is not a "product", it is a "order". It does not require sales, does not rely on teams, does not rely on roadmaps, and does not change parameters to please the market. It just exists quietly, allowing the world to correct itself around it. In front of it, the complexity and change of altcoins are just imitation and anxiety about eternity. Conclusion: The art of altcoin, the way of Bitcoin. Art changes with the wind; Tao is never easy. Those who believe in art will benefit from it and suffer from it; those who keep the Tao will eventually see the light even if they are lonely. Bitcoin is not the tool you use to make money, but the key you use to understand the world. The hot topics in the next ten years are AI and Bitcoin. Both of these things will greatly enhance the productivity of the entire society. ai, the improvement of productivity is obvious. Write articles with one click, generate pictures with one click, generate video with one click, and write code with one click. Bitcoin’s improvement in productivity is relatively obscure, so you need to feel it with your heart. Bitcoin is used to protect your assets from dilution. From another perspective, it is helping you continue to make money. Ten years later, smart people will be grateful before my words.
