If you understand mycelium I think you’ll understand Bitcoin on the nevel (next level). It’s all about the nodes. Communication and energy storage are the most important features and it’s both of their major successes..

I think Satoshi could be Japanese because back in the past Japan ran an experiment with slime mild for their subway system where they created nodes for each city and the mycelium network took over and ultimately proved it was an incredible thing. Maybe this was the catalyst for his/her thinking?
