Could you elaborate on whether Bitcoin can be considered a decentralized application, or Dapp, for short? From my understanding, Dapps are typically built on blockchain platforms that offer smart contract functionality, allowing for decentralized governance and autonomous execution of code. Bitcoin, while it utilizes blockchain technology, is primarily focused on serving as a digital currency, with its primary function being the transfer of value. Does this mean that Bitcoin falls outside the definition of a Dapp, or are there aspects of its operation that could be considered decentralized and autonomous? I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this matter.
