Bitcoin
Bitcoin was created in 2009 by an anonymous person or persons who went by the name “Satoshi Nakamoto.” Bitcoin is the first-ever completely digital currency that is peer-to-peer, open-sourced, completely decentralized and operates on blockchain technology. Bitcoin is also the first currency in modern era not issued by a central authority. We encourage you to read the Bitcoin white paper. Since Bitcoin doesn’t have a CEO or global headquarters marketing it’s agenda, Bitcoin holds different meaning depending on your income, age, background and location.
For many, Bitcoin is an investment. After all, it has been the best performing major asset over the last 10 years with an increase of 21,000,000%. However, in many developing countries, Bitcoin can be perceived as a sovereign currency, due to hyperinflation of the country’s native currency and many citizens not having access to traditional banking systems.
Bitcoin is the ultimate disrupter. Throughout the years, many banking institutions have viewed Bitcoin as a threat, given it’s peer-to-peer nature. Even entire countries view Bitcoin as the enemy: Earlier this year, China banned Bitcoin mining and Bitcoin transactions because the issue of their digital Yuan. Also, the transparent, yet anonymous, blockchain transactions can attract nefarious characters, leaving law enforcement scrambling to keep up.
It’s important to keep an open mind about the evolution and narrative of Bitcoin…on both sides of the coin. 😏 Dive deeper into the pros, cons, and the future of Bitcoin in our premium long form newsletter out next week. Become a premium subscriber here!
