There is an old Chinese saying that goes, "Those in power are confused, those who are bystanders are clear." The authorities are the so-called self referential layer, and the bystanders are the so-called emergent layer. Satoshi Nakamoto's Bitcoin contains both "authorities" and bystanders, namely miners who invest real-world computing power in the self referential layer, and Bitcoin in the mechanical world of the emergent layer. The self referential layer and the emergent layer complete a perfect seamless self referential breakthrough. Similar to Zeno's turtle jumping out of an infinite recursive loop and emerging into the real world, that is, the infinite distance recursion of the turtle and rabbit racing is the imaginary world of thought, while the rabbit catching up with the rabbit and surpassing the turtle is the real world. These two worlds exist simultaneously, as long as we understand them. The boundary and jump between two dimensions. This is the same as the boundary between a black hole and a white hole, and the boundary between the elliptic curve plane and the hyperbolic plane produced by Euclid's fifth axiom of plane geometry. Gauss once used three mountains to measure which plane our reality belongs to, and later Einstein deduced that all three planes exist simultaneously. We can only design products well and create good works similar to Bach/Escher/Satoshi Nakamoto by understanding the boundaries of self reference.
