A must watch if you're a Bitcoin fan...

Finally, we are getting some people fighting for Bitcoin in high places

There was a moment several years that really stuck with me regarding bitcoin.

I was taking a walk with my father and we were talking all things bitcoin when he asked a very interesting question.

He said something along the lines of if bitcoin threatens government's ability to control the money and it also threatens the banking elites, that means bitcoin is going to have a ton of very powerful enemies right? So, who stands up for bitcoin against them?!

A simple yet profound question...

The obvious answer was that we do.

The people invested in bitcoin stand up for bitcoin.

However, it's not that simple...

We need people in high places fighting for bitcoin, people like this guy:

This video is a must watch if you are bitcoin fan btw...

There have been several politicians actually taking the time to understand bitcoin and fighting for it lately.

We didn't have that a few years ago.

Bitcoin is going to need more people like this standing up to prevent the banking elites and those in government with agendas shaping the bitcoin narrative.

It's up to us to defend bitcoin.

Sort:  

Because of its anonymous nature , it becomes a veritable instrument for corrupt practices and sundry criminal activities.

This account for the seemingly official opposition to all digital value instruments !!

Except that it's technically anonymous but in reality, it's not. If there is ever a slip up along the way, the entire network of transactions and their identities can be unraveled due it to being on a public ledger forever.

Thanks for the clarification!

In my point of view, Bitcoin and other cryptos do not represent threats to banking. I think the opposite, they will together make the banking economy better by its network around the world.

2021 seems like the year for struggling for things that matter.

Integrity for example.

Or simple rights to live unimpeded by those that want to do you harm.

You know there's a 'Mute' button don't you?

I never mute or block anyone ever. I believe everyone has a right to be heard and to hear what I have to say. You can mute if you want.

Your choice. You don't apologise either. I saw that.

You're entitled to choose and decide for yourself. I've got no intention (and no power) to change that.
