Bitcoin's "Uranium Mining Moment":
When the same computing power mines a second worth
Satoshi Nakamoto perhaps didn't expect that the Bitcoin network he created would face an increasingly imminent threat.
Halving every four years, miner rewards shrink year by year, and if hash power is lost, the entire network's security line becomes precarious. Someone has calculated: today, just 4.1 billion dollars can break through this public chain carrying trillions in value.
This is not alarmist talk.
Over the years, people have tried to find a cure. Scaling solutions have been debated repeatedly, proposals for issuance increases touch red lines—any change that violates the original decentralization principle is doomed to be rejected by the community.
Inscriptions once brought hope, attempting to subsidize miners with Gas fees, but ultimately fell silent due to liquidity exhaustion.
The problem seemed unsolvable. Until someone discovered a "new substance" in Bitcoin blocks.
It’s like a gold mine that has been mined for years. The gold content is decreasing, costs are rising, miners are almost giving up—then, they find uranium in the veins.
The value of uranium, those in the know understand naturally.
Benny and the big beard tech experts, through digital material theory and TAP protocol, rediscovered the existence of NAT. It is produced in the same block as Bitcoin, sent to the same wallet, with no additional cost.
The same computing power, two yields.
This is not just talk. Just yesterday, SpiderPool, the fifth-largest mining pool globally, holding 8.8% of the total hash rate, officially announced to the world: NAT is Bitcoin’s twin brother.
This is the industry’s first official endorsement of NAT’s value.
Miners, listen up—you’re seeing your hash power priced twice for the first time.
What will happen next? Foundry, AntPool, F2Pool, ViaBTC… When a leading mining pool takes the lead, there are only two choices: follow suit or fall behind.
NAT’s narrative has shifted from community consensus to mining pool consensus, from grassroots belief to industry standard.
This is the most wonderful part: NAT is both an expansion solution and an issuance solution, yet it does not shake the foundation of decentralization.
The difficulty of securing the Bitcoin network, because of NAT’s emergence, has finally seen a glimpse of a perfect solution.
Data does not lie. Valleys will eventually be filled.
Bitcoin holders, centralized exchanges, Wall Street reserve giants, even countries that include Bitcoin in strategic reserves—they all understand better than anyone what defending network security means.
Empowering NAT is, in essence, defending their own interests.
As for the future? In the AI era, a value carrier that coexists with Bitcoin and is naturally anchored by hash power will go wherever—
NAT and Bitcoin coexist. The rest is up to time.
It's been a year, and it’s truly wonderful and worth learning from.
These two deeds were delivered yesterday, so they don't want me.
