"It is interesting that a meme of digital gold has popped up around BTC over the last few years. The complete lack of understanding of how Bitcoin works from the Bitcoin Core team has led to such a narrative. In particular, the promotion of Nick Szabo’s failed concept of bit gold has crept into Bitcoin Core. In his comment where he says that using a new key for every transaction is utterly stupid, Mr Szabo, unfortunately for him, has demonstrated just how little he seems to understand about Bitcoin. It is written in my white paper:

"As an additional firewall, a new key pair should be used for each transaction to keep them from being linked to a common owner. Some linking is still unavoidable with multi-input transactions, which necessarily reveal that their inputs were owned by the same owner. The risk is that if the owner of a key is revealed, linking could reveal other transactions that belonged to the same owner."

La filosofía de que el protocolo de Bitcoin está "Escrito en piedra", es tan potente, tan coherente y tan elocuente, que creo que hasta una tribu, sin contacto con la civilización actual, seria capaz de entenderlo con pocas palabras.
