Key Points

  • The study aims to identify structural isomorphisms in Bitcoin's architecture through a thermodynamic lens.
  • Analyzed the Bitcoin protocol using mathematical frameworks such as Landauer erasure and entropic concepts.
  • Mapped Bitcoin's characteristics to historical alchemical principles, particularly the tria prima.
  • Developed theoretical predictions about Bitcoin's behavior based on these mappings.
  • Established ten structural isomorphisms between Bitcoin's architecture and the void framework.
  • Demonstrated that Bitcoin operates as a form of digital alchemy.
  • Registered seven falsifiable predictions regarding Bitcoin's operational characteristics.

Abstract

Ten structural isomorphisms between Bitcoin's protocol architecture and the void framework mathematical apparatus. Proof of work as Landauer erasure, 21M cap as prohibition-ritual pair, difficulty adjustment as Pe regulator, open source as anti-alchemy, Satoshi's disappearance as institutional omega. The tria prima (Salt/Mercury/Sulfur) maps exactly to the three framework dimensions (Independence/Reactivity/Opacity). Bitcoin is the first successful digital alchemy. ATHANOR on MegaETH completes the arc with every parameter derived from first principles. Seven falsifiable predictions registered.
