The “value” that #bitcoin produces and offers to the world is that it is a constant in the economic marketplace.
Its promise is to NEVER CHANGE.
The rules now = the rules forever.
Why?
So participants in that marketplace can trade equitably, which incentivizes them to provide real value.
That improves the quality of the products and makes prices go down.
This incentivizes to keep on improving.
And so on.
Fueling a marketplace with money that constantly loses value over time leads to lower quality because that is what that money incentivizes.
It makes the future more unpredictable.
This makes people consumers. Not builders.
Builders make us progress and innovate.
Which makes prices go down and living standards go up.
Scarce constant money = abundance in everything else.
Study #bitcoin
