To be fair - what she discovered was the first commodity mined in digital space ..
But she wanted the first one so good that she manifested properties of #gold in it ..
A permissionless and decentralised protocol over open codebase .. to run an immutable ledger .... that is lot of jargon - what it means is ... Simply ..
Anyone may participate and it could never be stopped .. that is where the word "censor resistance" came into being .. well .. found it's true meaning ..
Tuned out those were the very properties of gold .. immutable ( never degenerates) , permissions less ( no KYC) , and decentralised ( you can dig a pit anywhere :-) ..
