The self righteous and fantastically rich people in the west who have the power to solve these problems many times over are not at all concerned with the plight of other people, and are satisfied with pontificating and endlessly describing the same problem over and over. PATHETIC

Thankfully because Bitcoin is software and software can’t care about who writes it, the problems of fiat will be solved by people who can describe a problem, think, and who aren’t Virtue Signalling, playacting cowards. This work is happening without their permission or knowledge.

Buying Bitcoin to make payments is going to be the number one use case on Earth. It’s going to be done with Pine wallet, Blue Wallet and Azteco as the means of getting Bitcoin. I’m not speculating by the way. Mr. Jabesi is 100% correct. He can see this thanks to his perspective.

Without exposure to different perspectives and the ability to empathise, it is not possible to understand why Bitcoin was written. If you think Bitcoin’s use case is solely a “store of value”, you are parochial, ignorant, mind blind and closed off from reality. You don’t matter.

Bitcoin Matters. Bitcoin Exists. Bitcoin doesn’t follow your instructions or fit into your thinking; it is a tool that obeys the person who writes on it. If you understand what it is, you can use it to solve problems. That’s all there is to it. What you believe doesn’t matter.

Your limited imagination isn’t the standard that Bitcoin or developers must adhere to. Your lack of imagination, exposure, experience and guts is entirely your problem. It is not the reality. Other people who are not like you and who live in reality are not constrained by you.

If you’ve constructed the correct model, written the software to give your ideas the power to act, and have market access, the world can change because you’re not a coward and understand risk, problem solving and entrepreneurialism. The weak and frightened can’t do this.

WhatsApp, Airbnb, Uber, Apple, Whisper Systems and others all exhibit the correct way of thinking. If you can’t muster the thinking for yourself, you can try to emulate…but nothing can cure your cowardice. You’ll never build something like Uber, invest in it or be associated.

Cowards just don’t have what it takes to change the world. A coward could never build Uber, and similarly the global Bitcoin Unicorn will not be built by or associated with cowards. These are matters of fact, not opinion. Facts don’t care about your feelings.

Nothing in the last 1000 years would have been built if men and women spent time describing problems as an end in itself. Definition is the first step only; it isn’t the goal. Solving problems and helping people is the goal. Bitcoin exists to solve a problem. Cowards ignore this.

Bitcoin was designed to replace fiat. It wasn’t designed to co exist with it. Many people simply can’t imagine that that goal can be achieved. That’s their problem; the problem of a lack of imagination. Bear in mind, none of these people thought fiat was a problem at all.

Do you really think that these imaginationless “recent converts” who want to constrain and pigeonhole Bitcoin can imagine the future? If you do, you’re a fool; these people can’t imagine anything, let alone what the near future will be like. On the other hand developers can.

Because entrepreneurs are aiming at a point in the future, they can see a future with their tool in it. The imaginationless can’t, because they don’t even know the tools are in development. Steve jobs knew that no phone in the future would have a keyboard. Normal people scoffed.


And YOU are not that stupid because you understand what Bitcoin is, are not a Virtue Signalling coward, and understand that the tools and services of “The Transformation” are being built right now. You don’t just talk about solving problems, you’re solving them by acting.

And let me be perfectly clear, and I’ve said this before. People whose role it is to act as educators are essential parts of the Transformation equation. In order for anything to happen people need to be persuaded that Bitcoin is a boon, and not a threat. medium.com/hackernoon/bit…

The Transformation needs gifted writers, thinkers and educators like @saifedean who is a perfect example of entrepreneurial spirit, and risk taking with his new education platform set to disrupt the global University system. Universities won’t like it like Banks hate Bitcoin.
