🚀 Bitcoin ELIMINATES the need for central banks
But Bitcoin’s destiny was never to be locked away in digital vaults like gold, but to power the world’s payments.
The next Bitcoin cycle will not be driven by a new gold standard narrative or speculation — it will be built on infrastructure, adoption, and real-world utility.
💡 Bitcoin is not digital gold. It´s money.
Bitcoin is the foundation of a new global payment system — without central banks, intermediaries, or permission.
Below is direct evidence of what Bitcoin’s creators envisioned — in their own words.
📚 Cryptonomicon – Neal Stephenson (1999)
“We don't need a new kind of gold. We need a way to move money that no system of control can shut down.”
— Cryptonomicon, Epiphyte-Storyline
“If you can move money faster than governments can regulate it, then you have essentially created a new economy.”
“The goal is not to hoard wealth but to build rails over which it can flow without interference.”
“Digital currency is not about storing value in a vault; it is about making value fluid.”
🔷 Bitcoin White Paper – Satoshi Nakamoto (2008)
The whitepaper explicitly states that Bitcoin was designed as electronic cash for payments. The concepts of “store of value” or “digital gold” do not appear anywhere in the whitepaper.
📌 Quotes that clearly establish payments as the primary purpose:
“A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution.”
— Satoshi Nakamoto, Introduction
“We have proposed a system for electronic transactions without relying on trust.”
— Satoshi Nakamoto, Conclusion
“Commerce on the Internet has come to rely almost exclusively on financial institutions serving as trusted third parties to process electronic payments.”
— Section 1 – Problems with existing payment systems
“The system is secure as long as honest nodes collectively control more CPU power than any cooperating group of attacker nodes.”
— Section 11 – This describes the security model for payments, not for passive value storage.
Humanity is 300k years old, and we've been online for only 30 years. The erosion of privacy today will have lasting consequences for hundreds, maybe thousands of years to come. If we don't fight for privacy today, we won't be able to fix it in the distant future.
