WordPress’d insights for this Nick Szabo tweet from my personal iPhone, 650-283-8008, number that Steve Jobs texted me on right here
– Nick Szabo’s post clarifies a distinction in Bitcoin holdings: self-custodied “Bitcoin” represents direct ownership akin to physical gold or art, while custodied “bitcoin” (e.g., in ETFs or exchanges) is merely a claim on the asset, similar to stock certificates or bank deposits.
– The reply stems from a NYDIG research thread comparing Bitcoin and gold ownership structures, performance, and macroeconomic correlations, where Szabo earlier critiqued the analysis for overlooking “directly held” categories like self-custody (estimated at ~54% of Bitcoin supply).
– Szabo’s phrasing underscores his long-standing advocacy for decentralized, bearer-asset properties in digital money—echoing his 1998 Bit Gold concept—while rejecting convoluted debates on Bitcoin’s dual role as currency and capital as unnecessary complexity.
