Or speculative attributes, redefining it as a form of military technological asset. The U.S. military values the technical features of Bitcoin's underlying protocol rather than its value as a digital currency.
2. The core focuses on two major technical features: the peer-to-peer, zero-trust value transmission mechanism: this decentralized, intermediary-free characteristic is believed to be useful for building more secure, censorship-resistant military communication and command systems.
The high defensive cost of the proof-of-work mechanism: Paparo pointed out that Bitcoin's proof-of-work mechanism makes network attacks require "physical costs far beyond conventional algorithms," which is seen as a powerful cybersecurity defense capability that can be directly used to strengthen military networks.
3. Serving the "comprehensive national power": Paparo emphasized that Bitcoin "transcends economic attributes, possesses key computer science application value in cybersecurity, and is a tool to support the United States' comprehensive national power."
U.S. military strategic intentions and deeper goals
This statement reveals multiple layers of the U.S. military's intention to incorporate Bitcoin technology into national strategy:
1. Network situational awareness and monitoring: by running Bitcoin full nodes, the U.S. military can monitor real-time network transaction flows, node distribution, and hash rate changes, aiming to track cross-border fund flows and potential threat activities (such as terrorist financing, hacking attacks), thereby grasping the global crypto asset dynamics.
2. Network attack and defense technology testing: using the Bitcoin protocol to test the U.S. military's own network resilience, while studying the application of mechanisms like proof-of-work in cyber warfare, both to reinforce their own systems and to explore attack paths against enemy distributed systems.
3. Seizing technological standards and rule-making dominance: involving the military to seize the discourse power over future standards and rules of Bitcoin and blockchain technology, ensuring that related technological development aligns with
