In 2014, the U.S. auctioned 144,336 bitcoin for $334 a piece. What else can you say?

It’s sad to think that every person has a price. Unless it’s in bitcoin.

When you become your own bank, you make the rules, set the hours, and never wait for anyone.

You can’t blame banks for trying to stop bitcoin. Horse breeders tried to stop cars.

Trillions are spent on networks that track you. And soon, trillions will have been spent on one that doesn’t.

Pay anyone, anywhere, anytime, and most importantly: for any reason.

There are two kinds of people: those who love bitcoin and those who don’t understand it.

#Bitcoin doesn’t discriminate against age, sexuality, gender, religion, political alignment, class status, financial history, race, skin color, or nationality. For starters.

You won’t need a banking license to be your own bank.

No one ever died in a bitcoin mine.

Banks protect money from theft, fire, and weather. #Bitcoin protects it from all four.

Being your own boss isn’t enough. You have to be your own bank.

“I don’t think many people in the government understand the gravity of Bitcoin, how powerful it is…I think they’re starting to understand it more acutely now…it may be too late.”

- Marty Bent

You can hate, doubt bitcoin, and even misrepresent bitcoin. But what you can’t do is stop it.

“There is no such thing as a balance; Bitcoin is not a bank account… its actually a collection of UTXOs.”

— Shinobi

Paper money always knew this day would come.

#Bitcoin uses elliptic curve cryptography, which means hacking it requires millions of years, every computer on earth, and the energy from three suns.

Since 2009, inflation devalued the dollar 19.7%. Also since 2009, bitcoin rose 12,000,000%.

Money talks, but bitcoin is the strong silent type.
