💡 1) "Why do we value Bitcoin in dollars?"
Most people don’t fully understand money or Bitcoin yet.
We’ve been conditioned to trust government-issued fiat currencies like dollars or euros.
Change takes time—just like the transition from:
🕯️ Candles → 💡 Light bulbs
📝 Mail → 📧 Email
💳 Checks → 💳 Credit cards
Bitcoin adoption is early, but more people are learning daily.
In the future, we won’t assign a USD value to BTC. Instead:
BTC will value fiat currencies (e.g., $1 = X BTC).
💎 2) "Bitcoin isn't stable—how can it be money?"
Bitcoin seems volatile only when priced in fiat currencies.
Fiat has unlimited supply, while Bitcoin is the scarcest asset ever created.
Long-term: Bitcoin’s value trends upward 📈 because:
Fiat devalues over time.
Bitcoin’s supply is fixed at 21M.
The only true way to value Bitcoin is:
1 BTC = 1 BTC 🌍
Right now, Bitcoin is the ultimate store of value:
🚀 Value rises every 4 years (thanks to the halving cycle).
More people are saving in BTC, reducing supply.
Over time:
Merchants will prefer BTC over fiat.
BTC will stabilize at a rate tied to global productivity.
⏳ 3) "Why is Bitcoin so slow?"
Bitcoin is intentionally slow at the base layer:
Limits transactions every 10 minutes to ensure decentralization.
🌐 Allows anyone globally to run a Bitcoin node.
📁 Blockchain data can be stored on a personal computer.
Larger blocks = Fewer nodes = Centralization risks.
Bitcoin prioritizes:
Decentralization.
Security.
As internet speeds improve, it will be easier to run nodes and potentially increase block sizes.
Result:
A decentralized, global network where anyone can be their own bank 🏦.
🌟 Key Takeaways 🌟
Bitcoin adoption will take decades for widespread use.
Price volatility is temporary—Bitcoin’s purchasing power will stabilize as more people adopt it.
BTC is a superior store of value now, transitioning to a medium of exchange as its value grows.
Bitcoin’s base layer is intentionally slow to prioritize decentralization and security.
The world is early in adopting Bitcoin—but we’re on the right path.
🚀 Bitcoin: The future of money.
