So money and langauge really do move together don't they. To do an inference of the money is language idea, Bitcoin will thus make our language, and by extension thinking, better because it is a superior form of money. Bitcoin will make us a better human species.
The connecting thread is specialization. Language is really about communicating knowledge needed for specialization. Specialization cuts out noise and makes the overwhelming data provided by the world's environment manageable in a singular domain, in the midst of scarce resources. Note however that the discovery of specialization is the force that discovers money. Hence the connection.
To expound on language: It is honed by the specialist in their domain e.g. the language of doctors for example. Requires a source of beneficence to put a human being through decades of medical school if you want to produce a top most doctor. Same goes for the best at anything.
Beethoven understands the language of music, but imagine if the people around him are all busy bodies who work all day on their farms doing everything themselves (growing, harvesting, cleaning, knitting, etc), then they'll be too tired to have mental energy left to appreciate his genius enough to elevate him to greatness. It is indeed why the genius of women was oft buried by the mountain loads of housework that they had to do.
Which is why great works of art of science are produced by men with substantial wealth in their family background and rarely by those who live through crushing poverty. Money elevates the intellect which, to grow even more, must find a way of enhancing specialization while solving a human need or disbursing a great goodness. Music is a great goodness, while inventing mathematics is solving a need for efficiency though it might appear at the outset to be removed from money, it is a domino at the start of a chain leading directly to nanotechnology, rocketry, advanced medicine, etc.
This was a great read.
