I believe settlement between banks can help fund #Bitcoin as the block subsidy goes to zero.
Thousands of financial institutions in the world need to settle balances with their peers. If that occurs over #BTC, the banks will pay transaction fees, and spread costs across users.
#Bitcoin can be a safe haven for your wealth. It’s resistant to theft and has a fixed supply, so you can feel more confident that your #BTC will be there when you need them, no matter what anyone does.
I fully support custodying one’s own #Bitcoin, and I believe that many people will choose that route.
That said, I also expect that many may choose to rely on #BTC banks, exchanges, and other financial institutions for decades to come.
The current financial system is broken. It’s rigged in favor of the wealthy & powerful, and it leaves ordinary people like us at the mercy of banks and governments
#BTC offers us a system that works for everyone — a system where we can be in complete control of our money
#BTC is deflationary, because there will never be more than 21 million Bitcoin. In other words, #Bitcoin’s purchasing power may increase over time as more people demand it and fewer are available.
Government debt crises are on the rise, but they can be solved with #Bitcoin. It’s a decentralized, scarce, transparent asset that can reduce inflation, improve accountability, and promote growth.
We should all be asking our governments why more of them haven’t adopted #BTC.
Hardware wallets are designed to store your #BTC private keys offline, which is one of the safest ways to store them.
Why let a company back them up online for you? That completely defeats the original purpose of keeping your keys off the internet.
#Bitcoin
Apparently, some companies in the #BTC hardware space don’t understand why hardware wallets are used in the first place:
If your Bitcoin are stored on an exchange or in a hot wallet, there’s arguably a large risk of them being hacked, stolen, or mismanaged. 2022 was certainly proof of that.
That’s where hardware wallets come in. Hardware wallets are physical devices that are designed to store your #Bitcoin private keys offline. That matters because you will lose access to your Bitcoin if your private keys are compromised.
In addition to generating your private keys offline, hardware wallets also allow you to sign transactions offline. So your Bitcoin private keys shouldn’t need to be exposed online if your hardware wallet is designed well.
Long story short, an offer to back up the private keys in your hardware wallet online eliminates the main benefit hardware wallets have over hot wallets.

#Bitcoin is money:
•It’s a medium of exchange that can be used to buy and sell goods and services.
•It’s a store of value that can be held to preserve purchasing power over time.
•It’s a unit of account that can be used to measure the value of goods and services.
Bitcoin has several advantages over traditional forms of money, like how it’s not subject to inflation and not controlled by governments.
Bitcoin is a promising new form of money and the number of people who use it has been steadily increasing since its creation.
I believe that there’s no better money than #BTC, and I share thoughts like this often. If you enjoyed this, check out my Bitcoin-only educational platform for more:

The next #BTC halving is expected to occur in a little less than a year, which will reduce the reward for mining new blocks by 50%.
The halving is irrefutable proof of #Bitcoin ’s immutable supply cap.
The Lightning Network is used by businesses and individuals around the world to transact in #Bitcoin nearly instantaneously. It also helps reduce the overall costs of sending and receiving money, so it’s making it easier for people to use #BTC for everyday transactions.
Bitcoin and CBDCs couldn’t be more different:
•#Bitcoin is decentralized.
•Bitcoin is scarce.
•Bitcoin is secure.
•Bitcoin is transparent.
•Bitcoin is permissionless.
#BTC is the future of money, not CBDCs.
Bitcoin’s impact on energy grids is overwhelmingly positive. #BTC miners are:
•Using excess energy that would otherwise be wasted.
•Helping make energy grids more resilient.
•Investing in renewable energy projects.
#Bitcoin is helping us build a better world.
The #BTC blockchain has been running for over 10 years without any downtime.
Its “competitors” can’t say the same.
#Bitcoin’s reliability and robustness have no equals.
Worried about #BTC transaction costs?
The Lightning Network allows users to make payments off-chain, which significantly reduces the amount of data processed on the layer-1 blockchain, giving us faster and cheaper transactions.
Argentina’s inflation is out of control. The peso is losing value every day.
#Bitcoin is a cure for inflation. It’s a decentralized currency that isn’t subject to government manipulation. It’s a store of value that can protect you from inflation.
The Lightning Network is a game-changer for #Bitcoin. It makes payments fast, cheap, and scalable. With the Lightning Network, you can send #BTC payments instantly to anyone in the world, with fees that are fractions of a cent.
Bitcoin and Lightning are the future.
