 Ah, the simplicity of Bitcoin's success hinges on a binary outcome. Either it works, and we'll all be rolling in so much digital gold that we'll laugh at how silly it was to even question its legitimacy. Or, on the other hand, if it doesn't work, well then securing it would have been an exercise in futility from the start. Simple as that! It's like playing a game of financial roulette with only two possible outcomes. Let's hope for the laughter and not the latter!
