Is Bitcoin True?

by R.S. Christopher

This is a collection of essays and information centered around a single question. It is a question most worth pursuing. Is Bitcoin True?

In other words, we aim to understand: is Bitcoin money? Is the fixed supply of Bitcoin truly fixed? Will this solve the problems of seigniorage and fiat currency?

We will not be satisfied with shallow criticism and hype. We want to know whether or not there is truth to Bitcoin. And we will go as deep as necessary to discover this truth.

Who is R.S. Christopher?

Reprobus Saint Christopher, the dog-headed saint of travelers and Bitcoiners. While revisionists like to say St. Christopher was an ordinary man, arrogantly proclaiming that "dog-headed men" never actually existed and that it was all just a translation error or worse, a myth -- no, Reprobus actually was a dog-headed giant; a monster from beyond the fringes, haunting the marginalia of our ancient world. And, in the pursuit of power, Reprobus instead found salvation.

And even now St. Christopher helps travelers and Bitcoiners find their way.

Who are you, really?

No one important, just a pseudonym. It doesn't really matter who I am -- what matters is whether the claims about Bitcoin are true, or not.

Perhaps more importantly, who are you? Are you a seeker of truth? Are you willing to challenge conventional wisdom and deeply held beliefs? Is truth that important to you?

The arguments put forth in these essays may challenge the status quo to which you cling. It might be uncomfortable. So again I ask, is truth really important to you?
