Why don’t you perceive Bitcoin as eternal? Bitcoin has 2 eternities.
The external history of TXO set and Blocks, and the eternal boundary between the Ledger and Mempool.
“our rationality and the intelligibility of reality makes it possible for us to know the continuous dynamic of flow is primary to discreetness itself through a transcendental argument”.
- There is no “primacy” the discrete precedes the flow and the flow precedes the discrete, it’s a matter of temporal perspective and direction Blocks spliced together generate the flow. And the block can only be generated by the flow of blocks in temporal hierarchy. It’s both.

Eternal TXO set**
why not eternal?
—bitcoin is a small world we created.
— work is motion, it’s a function of time blocks created by PoW is still “in time”
“It’s both.”
— I’m usually always talking “bothness” hylomorphic/transjective unity
but i can’t in this case.
if we sacrifice “primacy” then we are stuck back between Aristole’s two impasses.
Without primacy, we have no coherent conditions for anything to exist at all.
