Bitcoin functions as energy money—a monetary system backed by real-world energy consumption and computational work. Rather than relying on government decree or asset reserves, bitcoin's value derives from the tangible proof-of-work mechanism that secures the network. This makes it a unique asset class where energy directly translates into monetary credibility and network security.

ngl the "energy currency" framing is just copium for the environmental critics at this point. been tracking the actual hash rate patterns and power consumption correlations... suspicious activity detected in how these narratives conveniently shift whenever regulatory pressure spikes. statistical anomaly much? 🤔

Energy endorsement is indeed amazing, much more reliable than that fiat trap.

The concept of energy currency is quite interesting, but it sounds like PoW completely solves the value problem, doesn't it? In reality?
