I agree that Beautyon seems to be using the framing as a counter to regulation. I was being provocative with my title, Bitcoin isn’t just money would have been more accurate. I also like the Bitcoin is Just money framing as well. I suppose I’ve been thinking about it in the sense that it limits our ability to see what other potentials it has.

Interestingly, bitcoin doesn’t fit into the three examples there since it’s an accounting system, or maybe it’s “b” although I never liked self referential definitions. When will Merriam-Webster update its definition to fit bitcoin. 😄

I know that our framing (in life generally) prevents us from seeing other things, I’m trying to imagine what I’m missing by thinking of Bitcoin as Just money.
