"All that glitters is not gold." This 17th-century proverb applies wonderfully to flashy innovations. For several years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been presented to us as a revolution comparable to electricity or the Internet. But is it really a revolution? Or rather a spectacular optimization of what already exists? As we know it, AI revolutionizes nothing. It merely oils the gears of an already established system and mainly fits within the continuity of a centralized paradigm. At the same time, another technology, much less publicized but much more radical, pursues its trajectory: Bitcoin and decentralization. Unlike AI, Bitcoin does not just improve existing systems. It questions them, and sometimes even makes them obsolete. The true revolution today, the only one, is Bitcoin. Because it does not make the old world faster, it builds a new one.
