 FYI the native money of the Internet is fiat. Literally every online shop from Amazon to DoorDash to AliExpress takes fiat and none take Bitcoin. 
 Bitcoin is native Internet money, coded in C++ and launched on the Internet Jan 3, 2009. 

How was fiat coded and launched on the Internet? 
 I think it started in 1995 (?) when SSL was invented so we could use credit cards online safely. I think Amazon was founded around that time too. 
 SSL is not native Internet money.

“SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a standard security technology that encrypts data sent between a website and a browser or between two servers. It provides a secure channel between two machines or devices operating over the internet or an internal network, preventing hackers from seeing or stealing any information transferred, including personal or financial data.” - https://www.digicert.com/what-is-ssl-tls-and-https

Credit cards are also not native Internet money.

#Bitcoin *is* native Internet money. The Bitcoin Timechain only exists on the Internet.
