Transubstantiation
/trænz'səbˌstænʃiˈeɪʃᵊn/ (n.)
A Christian doctrine that during Holy Communion, that stale dry wafery thing the priest stuffs in your gob and the horrid sweet sherry you get a glug of to wash it down is, in the moment, transformed into the actual body and blood of Jesus Christ — even though it still looks, and tastes, for all the world like the inside of a bottle cap and cooking wine.
This is rather like the clever trick non-fungible tokens, and Bitcoin, are meant to have played on a distributed ledger. A piece of code is transformed into actual art or capital.
