Most people don’t realise it, but everything we consume and every decision we make is governed by one principle:

Energy storage.

Let’s break that down.

☀️ Food is Sunlight in Disguise
You probably learned about photosynthesis in school. It’s the process where plants convert sunlight into chemical energy. That energy gets stored in roots, fruits, and leaves — becoming the food that fuels all living beings.

Put simply:

Food is sunlight in electromagnetic storage.

It’s energy from the sun… bottled by biology.

When we eat, we’re literally consuming light — stored, transformed, and made digestible.

This concept isn't new. Ancient cultures worshipped the sun not out of superstition, but because they understood its vital role in sustaining life. Modern science just gave it a more technical name.

₿ Bitcoin Is the Same… But Digital
Now let’s move into the digital realm.

Bitcoin is also a form of stored energy — but instead of sunlight, it stores human time and computational effort.

Through a process called proof-of-work, miners use electricity (often generated from sunlight, wind, or water) to solve complex mathematical problems. That energy is then stored on the Bitcoin network in the form of verifiable, unchangeable blocks — the very essence of Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is time, energy, and value — stored in electromagnetic form.

It’s food for the financial soul. And like food, it nourishes — not the body, but the future.

⚡ Energy, Time, and Truth
When I tell patients or colleagues that light and Bitcoin are deeply connected, some raise an eyebrow. But here’s the truth:

Light governs our circadian rhythm

Time governs our biological and financial decisions

Energy underpins everything

Whether it's your mitochondria producing ATP, or your hard-earned money needing protection from inflation, the same principle applies:

Value = Energy over Time

👁️ Why This Matters for Your Health & Wealth
As an optometrist, I’ve spent nearly two decades helping people see better. But in recent years, I’ve realised that vision isn't just physical. It’s also about insight — into how we live, what we consume, and how we store our most precious resource: time.

Blue light, circadian disruption, and digital addiction? They’re all symptoms of a world that’s out of rhythm with natural energy flows.

Fiat money, inflation, and financial instability? Same root problem — storing energy (value) in things that leak.

🌱 The Takeaway
If you understand how a plant turns light into life…
You’re halfway to understanding how Bitcoin turns energy into truth.

As both a light health advocate and a Bitcoin advisor, I believe we’re entering a new era — one where understanding energy, in all its forms, is essential.

And whether you’re nourishing your body, protecting your savings, or reclaiming your health…

It all begins with light.
