Bitcoin gave us 4 freedoms, but I only use 3

Some came for the tech, some came to make cheese, but most say you gotta hold on to them keys

Bitcoins 4 freedoms

The only truly decentralized project that has succeeded so far is Bitcoin, and its succeeded in freeing people from

  • having to trust others with the custodianship of their wealth
  • having to trust someone else’s ledger
  • having to trade through middlemen
  • having to trade under someone else’s oversight

Small aside-Explaining the freedoms that Bitcoin has given us is hard. I’ve actually written the following sentences over and over and still dont feel happy about them. Add ideas in the responses and I’ll be eternally grateful.

Without good ol’ BTC, you need to trust someone else with your money, and then rely on a combination of debit cards, credit cards, and mobile phones to make payments.

Let’s be honest, its actually super hard to survive using ONLY BTC, but it’s still possible!
