Many Bitcoin critics see its energy consumption as a waste, but it's actually the security budget. In this week's comic, Gary is trying to "fix" Bitcoin by removing the energy. He calls it "Proof of Cardboard." But he finds that when you remove the energy from Bitcoin, what you're left with is a fragile box that can't protect your value from a stiff breeze. #bitcoin #nostr #BenAndGary #SundayComics

I spent years as a data analyst thinking #Bitcoin was just a fad. I thought staying away was being rational. Looking back, I was anything but rational. I’m building The Rational Bit to provide the logic-driven, rational education I wish I’d had years ago. What to expect here: - The Rational Bitcoin Guide: The "Why" before the "How." - Sunday Bitcoin Comics: Simplifying the network with Ben & Gary. - The Rational Bit Weekly: Real-world utility & infrastructure deep dives. - The Rational Bit Podcast: Coming soon! I’d love to get this community’s feedback. If you value a rational approach to Bitcoin education, let's build together. ⚡️ 👇 Subscribe for the deep dives:
