Relevance for the Professional
Understanding Bitcoin as an ethical response allows the professional to:
Analyze how technological systems reflect economic and political values.
Interpret the emergence of decentralized systems as a response to structural distrust toward traditional institutions.
Evaluate to what extent algorithmic governance can generate new forms of economic organization more resistant to corruption and structural favoritism.
From this perspective, Bitcoin should not be seen solely as a technical solution: it is a codified institutional critique. A new type of social contract, without signatures, without paper, and without the need for authority, validated exclusively by the distributed consensus of the network.
