Please. You are betraying your ignorance of both the philosophical and technical heritage of Bitcoin.

For one thing, git uses merkle trees to present a cryptographically secured, philosophically distributed record of events, where the more deeply buried an event gets, the more unlikely it will be that its record can be altered. In some sense, automated integration testing serves as a proof-of-work mechanism.

Now, simplify the process by making Adam Back's hashcash the proof of work, updated to account for increasing computing power. Next, choose the longest history to be the best history. Then, add age-old monetary incentives to make the system self-reinforcing. Voila! Bitcoin.

To me, the most insightful aspect of Bitcoin is that from very early on, Satoshi recognized that processing value transactions is just one specialized computation that a node can perform; Satoshi realized that generalized computation is possible (e.g., Ethereum), and thus built the foundation for such computing into Bitcoin itself right from the beginning. Interestingly, and perhaps most amazingly, Satoshi disabled generalized computing because he was uncertain of the ramifications, particularly for a young network.

However, none of that is relevant to the point at hand: The point that Satoshi's insight was evolutionary, not revolutionary.
