Bitcoin’s value is subjective—it’s different for everyone. In just one minute, we’ll show you how Bitcoin can mean freedom, security, or innovation, depending on your perspective. What does Bitcoin mean to you?
Imagine a building under construction with a set number of bricks—21 million. Every four years, the number of workers laying bricks gets cut in half. At first, progress is quick with lots of workers. But over time, fewer workers mean fewer bricks laid, and eventually, no more are added. That’s Bitcoin. Its supply is capped at 21 million, and the process of halving ensures it becomes scarcer over time, like finishing a masterpiece with limited materials.
A private key is like the key to your mailbox—it gives you exclusive access to your Bitcoin. But unlike traditional payment methods, no personal information is exchanged when you use it. This means you can send and receive Bitcoin securely and privately, without revealing your identity. It’s the ultimate tool for financial independence and privacy.
The Bitcoin network works like a library. The blockchain is the master book of transactions. Nodes are librarians—they check for accuracy and keep a copy. Miners are writers—they bundle transactions into pages (blocks), solve puzzles to add them to the book, and share it with nodes. Together, they ensure Bitcoin is secure, accurate, and decentralized.”
In this 1-minute video, we break down the illusion of fiat money. You might think having more dollars means you’re richer, but what if those dollars buy you less than before? Learn how inflation erodes purchasing power, showing that more money doesn’t always mean more value.
Ever wonder what happens when you make a card payment? It goes through banks, processors, and intermediaries—each taking a cut. Merchants lose a chunk of every sale to this complex system. Bitcoin flips the script with peer-to-peer payments, cutting out the middlemen and letting merchants keep more of what they earn. Simpler, cheaper, and fairer.
