Ever read the White Paper?

Well enough to know that it's not a holy document, is incomplete at describing the system, and is often misinterpreted by religious fanatics.
But not well enough to realize that in the paper, Bitcoin is considered only as money. Not as a repository for cat pictures. As you seem to imply.
Like I said, it's an incomplete high level document. Bitcoin whitepaper purists should note that the following things are NOT described in the whitepaper:
script
multisig
block size
addresses
ASIC mining
mining pools
21M coin cap
decentralization
8 decimal precision
2016 block difficulty adjustment
and much, much more...
