babel is not a myth. the details of the story are hazy probably because so many people died and so many things burned during its events but around teh same time also was what reads like a description of a meteor strike on the region of sodom and gomorrah. it's not a big stretch to speculate that it's actually both a story of the collapse of a civilization as well as a massive natural disaster.
monero is a distraction. we only need one money. monero is basically darkweb zhetons.
also, the natural disaster that likely was involved with the story of Babel is probably driven by recurring solar flares and the last one, now increasingly being referred to as the "Tianchi Event" based on the volcanic geological traces of the magnetic pole movement related to a massive swarm of volcanic eruptions around 6000 years ago is probably concurrent with what happened in Babel and Sodom and Gomorrah.
when so many people die in a disaster that virtually across the planet there was a loss of some 80-90% of the population, in a lot of cases the survivors are children, who don't have the full grasp of their culture's language and history, and who find other survivors from nearby regions and due to their language differences, develop a hybrid pidgin that eventually becomes a legit language after a thousand years or so.
everything about the babel story screams large scale natural disaster to me. not Flood level but big, and we already know that there was multiple locations across the planet about 6000 years ago where there are traces of a massive disaster. tying that also to the breakdown of civil society described in the encounters the people whose story populates Genesis, it likely also concurrently happened that there was a similar kind of society breakdown like we are seeing now. and, for extra bonus points, there is stuff going on with the sun right now that are looking a lot like the early warning signs of a large solar flare event that could cause a similar kind of disaster to occur. possibly even bigger, like Flood scale.

I am not denying that the Tower of Babel may have been a real event. What I am drawing attention to is its role in the unfolding narrative of Genesis.
Genesis 1 to 9 follows a repeated pattern of human sin, God’s judgment, and God’s mercy. Adam and Eve disobey and are banished from the garden, yet God promises that the woman’s offspring will crush the serpent. Cain murders Abel and is condemned to wander, yet God marks him so that no one takes his life. Humanity fills the earth with violence, so God sends the flood, yet He preserves Noah and his family. Over and over, judgment is tempered by grace.
The Tower of Babel breaks this rhythm. Humanity unites in pride to build a monument of self sufficiency, God scatters them across the earth, and the narrative shifts immediately to Abraham. The implication is that Babel remains the typecast for all human endeavours. From that point forward, God’s redemptive work flows through the promise to Abraham, which finds its fulfilment in Christ and will be completed at His return.
This pattern warns us not to place ultimate faith in human projects, whether nations, economies, or technologies. Bitcoin is no exception. It will always carry the seeds of Babel within it. Yet at the same time, we can acknowledge its potential to restrain evil, to limit exploitation, and to serve as a tool for justice. Our task is not to worship it as a tower to heaven but to use it responsibly in service of what is good while keeping our eyes fixed on the hope that lies in Christ alone.
