Agreed, so why hasn’t anyone else tried to prove the energy of Bitcoin? Saying “backed by energy” is not enough, where’s the proof? Why isn’t anyone else trying to derive the equations for Joules (via Kelvin). Are we going to compare Bitcoin vs fiat forever? Or are we actually going to look at the energy?

The energy is proven every 10 minutes. It’s called hash rate. If you run a node, you see it directly — no equations required. Proof-of-Work is the measurement of real-world energy, not an academic theory of it.

THE REALITY If they: don’t run a node don’t understand the timechain don’t grasp difficulty think PoW is “just words” want science-fair equations instead of real-world infrastructure …then they’re still stuck in theoretical fiat thinking. Bitcoin is not theory. It’s global physical commitment. View quoted note →
