Bitcoin, Utopia & Soul

Abstract

In this essay I make an interpretation of the psychological implications of a technological and financial phenomenon with signs of being revolutionary: Bitcoin. I interpret it following the perspective proposed by W. Giegerich that seeks the soul not inside people but in the very heart of the cultural-social-political and economic reality that constitutes us. For this, I use two documents of the soul that respond to distant times and disparate domains, however, they help to think a moment and a movement of the dialectic of the opus magnum of the contemporary soul.
