Bitcoin is proof of work, capitalism is proof of stake. Jesus flips tables when people profit from the poor. Also camel, needle, rich man, and heaven kind of shit. Sorry, thought that answer was implied.

Proof of work/stake being either christian or non-christian is a ridiculous argument. The methods are irrelevant. That's like saying addition is secular and multiplication is christian. It's what you do with it that determines how much it is aligned with ideologies. Jesus didn't go around to marketplaces attempting to disrupt business exchanges. As a carpenter he had many marketplace interactions himself. He "turned tables" when they tried turning his fathers house into a marketplace. Christianity champions individual responsibility, diligence, and the wise stewardship of God-given talents, all cornerstones of free market capitalism, where innovation flourishes, and voluntary exchange empowers individuals. Free market capitalism which, by the way, you can never have under a fiat money system that controls who the winners are. Jesus encouraged dignity of honest work, the right to build and create, and the profound generosity that springs from prosperity. Far from being at odds, a vibrant faith tradition finds its economic reflection in the freedom to produce, to serve, and to give. This isn't just theory; it's the bedrock of a society where enterprise meets ethics, enriching lives and fostering true community.
