Believing in the Capital Market: The Essence and Core Value of Cryptocurrency

The article "Believing in the Capital Market: The Essence and Core Value of Cryptocurrency" argues that the true foundation of the crypto industry is not technological utility or capital manipulation, but faith and consensus, forming what the author terms a "faith capital market." The author posits Bitcoin as a modern religion, drawing parallels to traditional faiths: it has a creator (Satoshi Nakamoto), a foundational text (the whitepaper), core tenets (e.g., the collapse of the modern financial system). However, its key differentiators are its decentralized consensus formation, internet-native propagation through memes, and a unique system where acts of "faith" like running a node or holding BTC are rewarded with both spiritual and material gains (price appreciation). The piece explores the double-edged sword of secularization. While it expands influence (like Christmas for Christianity), in crypto, it attracts speculators who dilute the core faith, leading to industry-wide "narrative failure" and a loss of purpose. The author critiques the industry's "technology myth," arguing that the relentless pursuit of faster blockchains with more utility is a self-destructive distraction from crypto's core value: decentralized consensus on value. The proposed savior is not more technology, but meme coins—or more accurately, "faith assets." True faith assets, like $SPX or $NEET, are not mere jokes; they are new religions with clear doctrines that galvanize communities around shared beliefs, mirroring Bitcoin's original role. The author concludes that the market's essence is this faith capital, and its future resurgence depends on recognizing and nurturing these belief-based assets, not on technological specs. The piece is a call to return to the foundational belief that value is derived from collective, decentralized consensus.
