At the end of the day, everything is ultimately tied to energy and the deflationary value of time and effort. When you invest time to learn a skill, you're performing your own version of proof of work. Time is a deflationary asset once spent, it can never be recreated which is why the output of your effort becomes valuable by nature.
Bitcoin works on the same principle. Its value comes from the real-world energy, time, and computational work required to mine it. Just like gold, Bitcoin cannot be created instantly or inflated at will. For example, extracting another 50% of the Earth's gold would take thousands of years, and mining the remaining 50% of Bitcoin will take more than 100 years due to its programmed halving cycles. That scarcity, paired with the energy cost, is what makes Bitcoin unique and valuable.
Gold is scarce because nature made it hard to extract.Bitcoin is scarce because code made it hard to produce.
Your skill is scarce because time makes it impossible to duplicate.
