Understanding the Bitcoin scarcity argument by way of three thought experiments.

Exploring the differences and commonalities between Ethereum and Bitcoin, two distinct animals each adapted to their own ecosystems.

Exploring the data behind Bitcoin as a Store of Value (SoV) using Stock to Flow, Circulating Supply Turnover, and the Number of Unique Addresses.

The trust revolution is about putting trust at the base of the pyramid. This is completely upside-down from the way things work now, where trust is assumed because verification is simply impossible. If you go far enough down the rabbit hole, you will eventually find that the emperor has no clothes and that the great Oz is simply an old man behind a curtain. What comes next could shake the world to its very foundation. And I think it all starts and ends with trust. The trust that comes from knowing, not from being forced to comply.

One of the most important distinctions of the Bitcoin network is its simplicity. The more responsibility you try to pile onto a technology, the more difficult it becomes to maintain. Satoshi knew this, and also that simplicity lends itself to having a smaller attack surface (better security).

For some, it’s a literal vote for freedom. For others, it’s an insurance policy against the devaluing of their fiat currency. For everyone, Bitcoin is a step toward a more meritocratic world. It’s a key piece in the Trust Revolution.

The good news for Bitcoin investors today is that in the long run the volatility is decreasing, the new issuance is programmatically guaranteed to decline every four years, the number of users is still increasing, and the activity of these users is increasing as well. While short-term price action will always be difficult to predict, the long-term outlook for Bitcoin is very bullish.

Bitcoin is not only the best performing asset of the last decade, but it’s also the greatest tool for human rights that exists today.
