Hmm no, the immaculate coinception refers to Satoshi creating Bitcoin in a set of favorable circumstances that can never be replicated again.
For instance:
  • A green field, no other form of a digital asset with decentralised and scarce properties at that time
  • No market value when it started
  • No pre-mining
  • No VCs, investors, or other funny stuff
  • A mysterious and anonymous creator that just disappears and leaves Bitcoin into the wild
It’s historically so fair and unique, that creates the purest narrative for the establishment of its value. It’s mythical!

Good explanation but this term is too silly. There's nothing supernatural about Bitcoin. "Hmm no" lol.

Is there something supernatural about fire or the wheel? What if Bitcoin is a discovery rather than an invention? What’s the difference between those two actually? 😄
