Bitcoin, like a Chavela Vargas song, is a journey of passion and uncertainty. If we could compare the cryptocurrency to one of her songs, “La Llorona” would be perfect. The lyrics speak of an intense and painful love, full of ups and downs, like the one felt by Bitcoin investors.
Just as in “La Llorona” one suffers for a love that promises freedom and satisfaction, but also brings anguish, Bitcoin attracts its followers with the promise of financial independence. However, the constant volatility of its value brings with it great risks. As with love in Vargas’ songs, Bitcoin investors live between the hope of something extraordinary and the uncertainty of what is to come.
Bitcoin is, at its core, a promise of freedom that, like Vargas's melodies, requires enduring pain to achieve something sublime, even if that hope may be fleeting.
