Understanding the value of being a whole coiner in a simple way:
First, imagine that all the Satoshi coins were in circulation instead of locked up—all the whales' coins were in circulation, all of it. No lost keys, no lost wallets, no stranded coins, no Michael Saylors, etc. All are up for grabs.
Now, imagine that you can only buy up to one full BTC at once, no halving, no mining. Mining would only be for verifying, and all the coins were in one place and had to be bought into circulation. Again, any one person could only buy one bitcoin during the launch. You could buy less but not more than one.
Now, let's do some math...
In this fantasy situation that will never exist, there can be a total of 21 million whole coiners.
There are 333 million people in America. In a perfect scenario, only 6% of the US population could be whole coiners.
There are 1.02 billion people in all of "The Americas". In a perfectly divided scenario, only 2% of the population of the entire Americas could ever be whole coiners.
There are 7.9 billion people in the world. In a perfectly divided scenario, only 0.27% could be whole coiners.
When you become a whole coiner, you are adopting an emerging asset with absolute scarcity—a global monetary instrument. You become part of a group that represents the top 0.2% of the maximum potential that will ever exist.
Every bitcoin bought, every new person on the planet, etc., reduces that percentage even further. If bitcoin reaches maximum adoption (which is likely), whole coiners will be the wealthiest 0.01% of people on the planet.
The sobering reality is that you may not live long enough to see it happen personally. Most of us came for "number go up," but the reality is we stay for our future generations once we realize it is more about "freedom go up."
