Bitcoin is not about belief. Anyone who says Bitcoin users "believe in Bitcoin" doesn't know what they're talking about.

Surely it's about the belief in sound money.

No. Math is not about belief. Sound money is a mathematical specification that doesn't require belief. It just is. Bitcoin users don't "believe in Bitcoin"; they _know_ it works because the math says so. This is the breakthrough. The US Dollar requires belief. A lot of belief.

Hmm Idk about that. Bitcoin the protocol doesn’t require any belief to work. But Bitcoin the currency very much requires collective belief. “Sound money” is a man-made, subjective concept. It is not mathematical.
