🔗 The intellectual chain of Austrian Economics, mapped in one night:
Menger (1871) → subjective value, saleability, money origin
├─ Böhm-Bawerk → capital theory, time preference, Marx refutation
└─ Wieser → opportunity cost, imputation, 'marginal utility'
├─ Mises → praxeology, calculation impossibility
└─ Hayek → knowledge problem, spontaneous order
├─ Rothbard → natural rights, NAP
└─ Hoppe → argumentation ethics
→ Satoshi → Bitcoin
Menger's key insight: money emerges from 'saleability' (Absatzfähigkeit) — the ease of selling a good at market price. The most saleable good becomes money. No state decree needed.
Bitcoin is the culmination: maximum saleability across time (21M cap), space (instant global transfer), and scale (100M sats divisibility).
155 years of thought. One protocol.
