Mark Moss argues Bitcoin embodies biblical principles like honest weights and measures through its fixed supply and transparent ledger. He contrasts this with fiat currency, which he sees as a tool of manipulation that violates Christian teachings about truth.
A lot of people want to look at Bitcoin like it's some religion. It's certainly no replacement for religion, but there are ties in the Bible to something like Bitcoin. So for example, we're supposed to have honest weights and measures. We're supposed to have money that we know is honest, that can't be inflated away, can't be stolen, can't be seized, things like that. We also know that fiat currency, which is money the government prints, is constantly being manipulated. They're lying to us about how much they printed or how much they have out there. The devil is called the father of lies. Money that lies, money that distorts of truth, money that manipulates you is the antithesis of what the Bible talks about, right? And so Bitcoin is open source, so it's like a source of truth because everybody can see the ledger at the same time. So it's— while Bitcoin is certainly not a religion, there are parts of it could certainly work with Christianity.
