I would challenge the premise: English is "the BTC of languages" in some ways (mainly: network effect), but not others.

I think the best candidate for "the BTC of languages" in spirit and design philosophy is toki pona.

A vocabulary so small it can fit onto a single poster.

And yet, it's very difficult to use it to actually express non-trivial things.

Finally, now I can understand what my Furby was trying to tell me.
