This paper presents an approach that reinterprets the Collatz sequence by transforming it into a new sequence, highlighting the dynamic relationship between the trailing and leading bits of its elements. This mapping enables the study of a "bit-race," whose well-defined statistical properties rigorously guarantee the convergence of all Collatz sequences to 1.
