Sort of. The way I see it, is that Bitcoin isn’t at all the program. It is more like the receipt of the program. Therefore, you can run programs on top of bitcoin and reconcile those programs to bitcoin. Does that make “bitocin TC”, idk. That’s where things get fuzzy, and also kinda pointless. I don’t think Alan Turing had anticipated this sort of thing when he invented the concept that we care so much about making arguments over… wait, why do we care so much about Turing completeness?
