Learn the origins of blockchain technology from the early 1990s to Bitcoin to the technology being used by millions today.
The internet gave us the age of information. Blockchain gives us the age of digital ownership. As I mentioned, blockchain is proof. Granted, it is also much more than proof.
Freedom is a fundamental human right. Cash (and bank accounts) can be confiscated, so can gold, artwork, etc.
Listen to this headline: “IRS seizes hundreds of perfectly legal bank accounts, refuses to give money back.”
It sounds like the working of a corrupt 3rd world government. But it isn’t. It’s in the United States.
Ask yourself: do you truly have freedom if the government can take it away without your consent? Without even filing any formal charges? You check your balance one day, and your money is gone.
The blockchain is useful because it is decentralized. That’s an important word. It means that no central authority controls it. No central authority can manipulate it. This means the benefits of this technology is here to stay and only grow to benefit more and more people, including you.
Presented by Mark, all in English.
