Wu learned that Strategy founder Michael Saylor published an article explaining Bitcoin's consensus mechanism. He pointed out that "hard consensus" is Bitcoin's immune system, with transaction fees determining block space prices. In the ecological division of labor, nodes set strategies, miners build blocks, and holders allocate capital. He emphasized that any protocol changes must achieve overwhelming consensus to ensure that bad ideas are eliminated before they can harm the protocol.

After reading it, all I can say is: the more later generations interpret Satoshi Nakamoto's architectural design, the more they admire it.

Bad ideas are filtered out before they even land; this immune response mechanism is designed so ingeniously.

Hard consensus is Bitcoin's moat; changing it is harder than amending a constitution.

Only overwhelming consensus can change the protocol; that is true decentralized governance.

Transaction fees price block space, and this economic model has been running for over a decade.

The triangular division of labor among node miners and holders is indeed clear.

Saylor's immune system metaphor is quite clever.
