No idea. But think of it this way... If a billion alien civilizations flipped a billion quarters 256 times and generated a billion seed phrases...
Would they necessarily overlap? Statistically I think not?
If the aliens did show up and think of something to use for trade, something neutral which was valuable, but small, but portable, inflation-resistant, and would go up in value the moment they said they wanted it...
That was neutral to actually trade with the Humans - why not Bitcoin?

Assuming quantum computers were impossible, impractical, or Bitcoin soft-forked to QC resistant addresses (it's just a thought experiment).
If the aliens had mastered Q Computers the Humans would be ****** anyway lol.
