I m confronted to someone who states that Satoshi Nakamoto never compared Bitcoin to gold in the monnetary sense (not about mining).
However, I m sure to recall a quote from Satoshi stating Bitcoin is digital gold which was used several years ago in the debate of Bitcoin vs Bitcoin cash as an argument that Bitcoin is a store of value and not a meant of payment.
I m failing to find it again. The only thing I found is about Bitcoin mining, but this isn t in the meaning I need to prove.
Does it really matter if he compares it to gold or digital gold? What matters is bitcoin is decentralized. So what Satoshi thinks about bitcoin doesn't/(shouldn't) matter at all since he doesn't control bitcoin or is the leader of "bitcoin". What matters is how we "all" consider bitcoin to be. If what Satoshi think about bitcoin is going to affect how we see bitcoin, then is it truly "decentralized" since someones opinion is highly affecting the overall picture of bitcoin?
Bitcoin itself is unique. There is no need to compare it with gold or other valuable things.
