Is it saving or investing? Without returns it can not be per definition an investment. It is saving and a gift for the early adopters. What is the gift for the early adopter? In my view it is the first democratic seignorage of the first democratic money. In classical seignorage the king or the central bank receives the seignorage and this is what built 80% of all castles in Europe but also financed 80% of the wars. Aligned with the process of mass adoption(network effect) the seignorage is spread among participants and at some stage this will be completed (about 2040 I think). So get your free gift of the seignorage cake and peacfully build your castle.

Awesome video bram. All your videos are orange peeling me. I'm almost there 😊 I feel like taking all my money out of the bank and put in bitcoin. I just brought a trezor cold wallet. Once i learn how to use it. Think i will.

Buy all you want-but be prepared to wait at least 4 years and pray you won’t need the money before then

@@bramk That is the Key! 🔑 Having been in BTC for over 3 years, I feel I’ve learned a few things. First, hard money and assets matter. Second, there are no “crypto experts”-but there are plenty of scammers. Third, bitcoin is going to take a lot of time for most of us-it clearly doesn’t run like it used to. Fourth, bitcoin absolutely did NOT hit a new ATH in 2024-it didn’t even get close. Fifth, there is no “supply shock”.
