Welcome!

Today, we're going to play around with Markov chains, which are mathematical systems that predict the next "state" based on the current "state". I created a basic Markov chain program in Python and in this case, the different states will be words, and the Markov chain has been "fed" with the Bitcoin whitepaper.

In theory, it should now be able to spit out understandable sentences in the style and on the topic of the Bitcoin whitepaper. Even if Satoshi no longer communicates with the community, maybe we can glean some significance some simulated sentences derived from the Bitcoin whitepaper.

Well, let's dive in.

Anonymous. the infinite tail of the time by stock exchanges

Nice. Really abstract and brings to attention the despicable actions of stock exchanges.

Forming a block of transactions must be doublespent

Well, I guess there's also an almost equal chance of having the opposite vibe. But, maybe it's just an innovative new system of blocks with only double-spent transactions! Sounds spicy!

Double spending

Value, the majority of ownership

It should be kept in the users

Again, all abstract yet meaningful.
