"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.

"We do not defend nature. We are nature defending itself." This indigenous proverb illustrates the capacity of the natural world to survive crises without seeking absolute optimization. It reminds us that resilience is at the heart of living beings. Nature does not aim for speed or immediate efficiency, but for diversity and adaptation. Certain animal species, in particular, traverse the ages by evolving in response to threats. Similarly, Bitcoin does not rely on instant performance, but on its resilience due to its decentralized architecture. It follows the same laws of nature, being able to withstand multiple attacks and bans. The parallel drawn in this article between nature and Bitcoin raises an essential question about the model to adopt. Should we prioritize efficiency or resilience, in order to ensure the sustainability of a world in constant digital evolution?
