| Readers, you are discussing Bitcoin before the 4th of 32 halvenings. Things aren't so clear to most and dust has not settled. One thing is certain, it is not too late to read the whitepaper and learn what the emergence of the first new base layer money in 5000 years truly means and get your head around the significance. Now, to the article. This is a write up response to a comment one of the world's richest men said on the app, Clubhouse. These are the articles worth discussing with this audience? Look at the final sentence of the article. Seriously? "This currency is not good for Green Planet." Yikes. We're all on our own journey an in time all roads lead to Bitcoin. This is not a technology story, or an energy story, but a human story. The story of Bitcoin tells about people working with machines to accomplish something that seems impossible to most of us. Bitcoin frees the slaves. Literally, not figuratively. If you have to sell your time, sweat, and blood to earn money, it is unacceptable to allow corruptible central planners to create that same money out of nothing. This is a power that no group of people should have over others, and certainly one that future generations will look back on find it laughable that a society would entrust people with control over the money supply after time and time again history has shown what happens. Bitcoin is ending the monetary enslavement that central banks have been desperately clinging to. Issues around central banking, inflation, and money supply manipulation are not new in the story of human history. The current chapter is unfolding to see Bitcoin demonstrating an incorruptible money and it is growing up rapidly. How much energy do you feel is appropriate to put toward abolishing central banking and freeing humanity? Personally, I feel blessed to have discovered Bitcoin while it still consumes less energy than small countries. What a time to be here! |
They have been bashing Bitcoin for a long time, and they still don't get it. They downvote and fight whoever tries to bring some different perspectives to the discussion.
HN people are the types who believe they're "saving the planet", and they're fixated on the idea that Bitcoin is evil due to its energy consumption.
Let them learn the hard way. If they get any clue on what Bitcoin is, there's the risk they may get rich and attain some power in the future, which will only make matters worse.
