Ehhh, money is the only transaction.
If you look objectively at the process Bitcoin demonstrates: energy resolving into memory, memory carried forward as time, time preserving durable truth, you realize there is no separation between money and reality. Money is not a symbolic layer placed on top of the world. It is value conserved through time. We are not observers standing outside that conservation process. We are expressions of it.
At the most fundamental level, what exists is the continual reorganization of energy across boundaries. Every state transition is a peer-to-peer exchange: potential resolving into ordered structure. Bitcoin did not invent this; it exposes it. A boundary forms, work is applied, a state is committed, and history advances. That is the same pattern whether we call it physics, information, or economics.
From one side of the boundary, the process appears as information: a state transition, a record, a UTXO. From the other, it appears as physical interpretation : energy, matter, work. These are not separate domains. They are two descriptions of the same substrate: value crossing a boundary and being preserved.
Money is the formal recognition of how reality persists at all. Value conserved, boundary to boundary, act to act. We as bounded structures of preserved energy moving through time are not separate from that definition.
Every exchange is money for money. We just don’t fully understand money.
