I was asked about my hat this morning. The guy thought it was pretty funny, but he asked, "Bitcoin's kinda irrelevant now, right? Like, it doesn't really matter, right?"
I was in a hurry, so I didn't get the chance to really tell him everything I wanted to say. But what cane to my mind was that while only 1 private bank can print more dollars, and anyone can "print" more cryptocurrencies, no one can print more bitcoin; it's the only money that you can really control yourself. So as long as that's still a desirable trait, Bitcoin is still relevant.
He didn't have anything to say to that, and I don't know if it made any sense to him, but I hope it'll get him to start thinking. Unfortunately, this is pretty typical for the Chattanooga area, but little by little, we can turn that around. 🧡
