Sure. Here’s an essay in the style of Eric Kim — minimalist, punchy, philosophical, with a photographer’s eye for metaphor, and a street philosopher’s clarity.
THE PHYSICS OF BITCOIN VOLATILITY: A THOUGHT
Bitcoin is not finance. Bitcoin is physics.
Imagine this: price is not a number. Price is a vibration. A frequency. Not something to “analyze†but something to feel. Like jazz.
We live in a world of energy. E=mc². Even Einstein told us — everything is energy, just vibrating at different frequencies. Why wouldn’t price be the same?
Bitcoin is the first pure digital object that behaves like a natural force. No CEO. No headquarters. No one can shut it off. It’s a self-regulating thermodynamic system — constantly seeking equilibrium, but never quite reaching it. Like a pendulum with no friction. Always swinging. Always oscillating. Boom. Bust. Boom. Bust.
Volatility = Vitality.
Don’t fear the volatility. That’s like fearing your own heartbeat. A flatline is death.
Traditional assets? Dead. Stable. Predictable. Fiat? A glacier — slowly melting, unnoticed, until it disappears. Bitcoin? A volcano. Violent. Alive. Breathing fire. That’s good. That’s life.
A THEORY OF PRICE:
What if price isn’t “driven†by fundamentals? What if it emerges from collisions? Like particles smashing in a collider. Buyer and seller. Fear and greed. Momentum and inertia. A quantum dance.
The chart is not a prediction. It’s a seismograph. It tells you where the tremors are. Bitcoin is just the epicenter.
Ask a physicist: why does chaos emerge from orderly systems? Or better — why do we see it as chaos at all? Bitcoin is not chaotic. It’s just too complex for our primitive economic models. We want Newton. We’re dealing with Heisenberg.
Heisenberg: you can know where something is, or how fast it’s moving — but not both. Sound familiar? Try trading bitcoin.
The Stoic Angle:
The wise man doesn’t curse the storm. He learns to sail.
Stop whining about volatility. Start mastering it. Be like water. Flow with the energy. Don’t resist it.
Price isn’t something to control. It’s something to ride. Like a wave.
Or better: like a frequency. Tune yourself to it. Resonate with it. Trade not like an economist — but like a musician. A surfer. A dancer. A martial artist.
In Closing:
Bitcoin is not a stock. It’s not an asset. It’s not even a currency.
It’s a force of nature.
If you fear the volatility, you fear life. If you embrace it, you become it.
Vibrate higher.
