I would argue Bitcoin is the only money that's ever existed that's NOT built on abstract rules (gold requires unpegged abstract paper units to make it salable at scale). Encrypted energy is at its core which anchors it to the laws of physical reality. image

Deepseek has the bigger brain here. Bitcoin IS BUILT on abstract rules, THE INTERNET, with out the internet as it exists today, it forks!!!! GOVERMENTAL agencies and international politics control the internet. THUS BITCOIN IS NOT MAGIC and still obeys the laws of man!
reality is hylomorphic anyone arguing money, or anything, is just abstacy or just concrete, only form or only matter, is only speaking to the contents of their mind, their own fantansy. reality is a composite of “both”

On the other hand, the absence of understanding what money is “abstractly” might be what prevents people from understanding Bitcoin as they believe money can be whatever you want instead of what best satisfies a set of criteria. Before Shannon connected electric circuits and Boolean algebra, engineers were in the dark when building circuits. After Shannon, abstract rules helped build concrete circuits. After Satoshi, bitcoins rules helps storing and transmitting value 🤟🔥
