Bitcoin Is Physics-Based?
Speaking to Indian entrepreneur Nikhil Kamath, Musk discussed what he thought were “physics-based” fundamental currencies.
“Energy is the true currency. This is why I said Bitcoin is based on energy,” the technology mogul said.
Musk argued that energy can’t be legislated, adding, “You can’t just pass a law and suddenly have a lot of energy. It’s very difficult to generate energy, or especially to harness energy in a useful way to do useful work.”
