Fiat Money Is Your Comfort Zone, Bitcoin Is Your Growth Zone
You are still in the learning zone and are now looking for alternatives to the current monetary and financial system.
You have already heard about Bitcoin and are now ready to take the risk of finding out what Bitcoin is.
Your comfort zone doesn’t feel as nice to you anymore and you want something better for your future life.
You download Satoshi Nakamoto’s white paper on Bitcoin. The title of this white paper appeals to you.
Bitcoin is described as “A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System”.
As you go through this white paper, you may wonder why you didn’t make the effort to find out what Bitcoin is earlier.
Don’t blame yourself, you just weren’t ready.
Now you are, and you are amazed to understand first-hand how Bitcoin works.
You shouldn’t. Bitcoin is what the current monetary and financial system should have been.
It is simple and accessible to everyone. Money should not be reserved for an elite.
Everyone needs to be able to understand how money works, and Bitcoin does just that.
The fact that Bitcoin exists in finite quantities, set at 21 million, shocks you at first.
Then you understand that scarcity is the best way to give value to Bitcoin.
This property is written into the heart of the Bitcoin source code and guarantees that 1 BTC you own today will always be equal to 1 BTC of 2100.
Bitcoin protects what you own better than the U.S. dollar ever could.
Better yet, Bitcoin has no leader as Satoshi Nakamoto chose to remain anonymous and gave it to the world as a gift.
No one can stop Bitcoin. No one can stop you from making transactions on the Bitcoin Blockchain.
What you own in Bitcoin really belongs to you.
Bitcoin is clearly a revolution that gives power back to the people.
When you discover the process of updating Bitcoin’s source code, you are convinced that Bitcoin is a true democracy.
As a pseudonymous network, Bitcoin also allows you to guard against the surveillance society that many countries are starting to set up.
Future developments of Bitcoin, such as the Lightning Network, will further preserve your anonymity.
As an inhabitant of a rich country, you are now convinced that Bitcoin is your best alternative to replace the current monetary and financial system.
You are in the growth zone.
However, you have one last doubt: can Bitcoin be more than just a Plan B in the future?
As you read on, you will discover that Bitcoin is already a Plan A for millions of people in countries under authoritarian regimes.
Bitcoin is already making a huge difference in Venezuela, Zimbabwe, Brazil and Afghanistan. This countries’ list is far from exhaustive.
It is clearly no coincidence that Bitcoin’s adoption rate is the highest in such countries.
Bitcoin is the best bulwark for millions of people to protect what they own from the oppression of authoritarian and corrupt rulers.
By deciding to switch to Bitcoin and support its revolution, you are really entering your growth zone.
The great thing about Bitcoin is the fact that you’re in your growth zone doesn’t come at the expense of others.
Bitcoin benefits you, but it also benefits people in poor countries.
Bitcoin adapts to the needs of its users allowing it to benefit everyone at the same time.
In building a fairer world for the future, Bitcoin must enable the world to enter a growth zone by giving everyone a chance to benefit from this new system.
