Before #Bitcoin the only asset with absolute scarcity was time.

This makes Bitcoin a perfect store of value for the time we have to spend to earn #money.

An asset with a perfectly inelastic supply to store the value of another asset with a perfectly inelastic supply.

This makes #Bitcoin the hardest form of money.

I couldn't agree more! Bitcoin is a true breakthrough in terms of creating a digital asset that is scarce, decentralized, and censorship-resistant. The fact that the total supply of Bitcoin is limited to a maximum of 21 million coins is one of the most revolutionary aspects of the cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin's scarcity makes it an excellent store of value, as you mentioned, because it is immune to the inflationary pressures that plague fiat currencies. Additionally, its decentralized nature ensures that it can't be manipulated or controlled by any government or central authority, making it an ideal hedge against political instability or economic turmoil.

At its core, Bitcoin is the perfect refinement of the concept of money, making it the hardest form of currency yet. It is more than a currency or a payment system; it is a transformative technology that represents a paradigm shift in the way we think about and use money.
