YES. Was going to comment on this, exactly. Millennials were born with technology in-hand, and view commodities / precious metals as "archaic," IF they're even aware of them as a store of value & inflation hedge. It's easy to see how they'd shun precious metals for blockchain tokens; so, then the problem becomes - how to educate people when YT, the media etc. is largely if not wholly controlled by the same players backing this CBDC utilization and BTC store of value push? Informing is the first challenge, the race against the clock is a close second.

JFK planned to have the US government buy the Federal Reserve and take it away from the corporatocracy/billionaires who control it. He passed a law days before he was assassinated to that effect and he was borrowing that money to do it.

Not only does Bitcoin threaten USD as a currency, it threatens the entire political/welfare system because Bitcoin is perfect for tax avoidance. When it becomes big enough, it will challenge the status quo at the highest levels. In my view, it's the only thing that has a probable chance of destabilizing the current system & transforming it. Nobody with any intelligence is going to say this out loud because that puts a giant target on your back.

[@RalphBlack-k7h]

Don't think BTC threatens USD. It enhances the possibilities of keeping money safe for citizens. If it threatens USD, then the Fed and treasury are not supporting USD correctly. Countries are going way over budgets. Overspending by Governments are way more of a threat to the USD. Governments need to get their budget houses in order for their currency to not be threatened.

Humans act based on incentives. If you are hoping bitcoin holders will make a decision based on it being "the right thing to do", you are in for a very large disappointment. If Bitcoin were designed correctly, doing the "right" thing with it would naturally align with the monetary incentive. Anything short of that, and the vast majority will choose the monetary incentive over the "right" thing. We have thousands of years of history to prove this out. The world is currently slipping into chaos because bad behavior has been incentivized, it's as simple as that.

I don't understand why the two have to be at odds? From my understanding is that 1 BTC = 1,000,000 Satoshis, right? How many people who hold bitcoin actually know this and understand it?

Yes, but the correct way of thinking about it is not 1 BTC but 100,000,000 units/Satoshis which can be used quite comfortably to for tiny transactions. The only real argument I hear about why BTC cannot be a currency/permissionless interaction unit, is that the price is too high.

Of course the dot joiners are ahead of the game as we move closer to centralised system abolishing the concept of individual rights and abolishment of privacy. What's worse...we are one step closure to implementing digital currency having systematically closed 100's of regional and urban banks under the false claim and guise that banks are responding to 'customer demands' to reduce options for cash payments in favour of digital payments with the claim. MSM is running with a false narrative that their is an overwhelming preference for digit payments over cash due to the convienience and the costs involved with transporting cash when the customer habits are being misinterpreted as no longer a need for this option. However, at no point does the MSM even mention that the abolishment of cash will be replaced by a Centeal bank digital currency that designed to abolish privacy, trace, track and ultimately decern upon your purchases based on a criteria of their own choosing.

Shooting wars have already been fought over human freedom, and the good guys lost and were vilified. Most people today show by their actions (submitting to usury-based fiat, welfare, pointless wars, spying, public education, etc) that they love being slaves, just so long as they are comfortable and have the illusion of freedom. If the average person had his way, we would be living under absolute tyranny. So, I actually agree with the people who say that in order for number to go up, the big players need to step in. Everyone who was ever going to understand bitcoin's use case as the money of freedom have already bought. The only way to get more people to buy is via their greed or by submission to authority telling them to do so. But if bitcoin remains small, then the tyrants can use force to ostracize bitcoiners from the rest of the economy. The only hope I see for freedom is that the big players adopt crypto, and are eaten by it, rather than being able to eat it. The only hope for human freedom is that bitcoin and other crypto save humanity from itself against its will. If people really cared about freedom, then the people could have bought silver decades ago (maybe only a few dollars on average per person), and that probably would have been enough to topple the worldwide monetary system and replace it with precious metals again. Bitcoin is better money than precious metals, yes, but precious metals are already sufficient to run an economy with, if people were only willing to use it. The reason we live under tyranny is because most people want to live under tyranny. The real reason people are buying crypto now instead of precious metals is that bitcoin started with a market cap of $0 in 2009, and it's easy to get huge percent gains when you start from nothing. NGU and FOMO are the real reasons that most people buy crypto. Many people buying crypto are in the process of unwittingly giving themselves freedom by acting on their greed. Truly, Satoshi Nakamoto was a genius. I like to think of him as, "Saint Satoshi", because he invented a tool that lets mankind save itself, not through their virtues, but through the vice of greed.

Otherwise, it wouldn't matter. Bitcoin, US Dollar, monopoly, or even beads will be manipulated?😂😂😂! Before anyone responds with this is very close to Anti-semitism.

My question with Bitcoin is the mining is what powers the ledger. With the built in halving, it will take more power to run the ledger.

If no one mines what keeps the ledger going?
