A System of Value, Not Ideology: Parsing the Title and Abstract
Chapter 1 The Title: "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic
Cash System"
This opening chapter functions as a deep excavation-both linguistic and structural-of the Bitcoin white paper's title and abstract. The intention is not to summarise, but to detonate: to pull apart each word, each clause, and each economic, legal, and philosophical implication coded into the introductory text. It must set the ideological tone of the book-ruthless, analytical, unapologetically precise-revealing not what the masses believe Bitcoin to be, but what it was designed to be.
No deference will be given to myth, and no quarter granted to those who have molested the protocol through half-understood rewrites. The system described in the title is not peer-to-peer in the anarchic sense, nor is it "electronic cash" in the shallow sense of anonymity or detachment from the legal system. This is a machine of law-cryptographically constrained and economically enforced. #bitcoin
