Bitcoin = Financial freedom
the Holy Bible says, time will come in the whole world that everyone will use ONE CURRENCY and anyone who refused to use that currency can not buy things in any store. And the way BITCOIN is, it is accepting by the whole world. And Bitcoin is growing step by step.

So far Bitcoin is accepted as legal tender in only El Salvador, and many countries completely banned the usage even holding of Bitcoin so I don't think that Bitcoin is the one which is mentioned by the Bible. We don't have to connect dots everything to the religious perspective and it's not even that clear cause it's only created by fellow humans after several centuries of Jesus birth.

I have been planning to create this thread for more than three months but today I decided to drop the thread.
When I was a little child, Missionaries like Jehovah Witness Brethren and other Pentecostal Church preachers who was preaching the Holy Bible says, time will come in the whole world that everyone will use ONE CURRENCY and anyone who refused to use that currency can not buy things in any store. And the way BITCOIN is, it is accepting by the whole world. And Bitcoin is growing step by step.

I don't know in the last step of Bitcoin everyone will only use it and no any other currency will exist again. So I like to hear from some Biblical Scholars in the forum to tell me more on this topic. This thing that I said is inside the Holy Bible but I can't recall the scripture but it is in the book of "Revelation".

I do not even know where to start to give a response to your thread but I'll try to start somewhere. the first question I'll throw at you is what is the "ONE CURRENCY" you are referring to is just a metaphor? Well bitcoin is not is any way near what the HOLY Bible is referring to or implies. It is not even accepted by the whole world, the possibility of global adoption is very low.

I think we should take it easy with all these analogies about bitcoin and all. Would you rather have bitcoin and be free than have government heavily controlled and manipulated fiat and be in bondage of poverty?

Question is religious so mostly i try to avoid such discussions because at some point one doesn't like the idea of other. And i am also not a scholar of bible book because i am a muslim and i have knowledge in Quran Majeed (Book). And your question is really excited me to learn about it. Because bible is an old book and the last book was Quran (which covers almost all the topics covered in bible and other books). So, i do know that if this topic is present in the Bible from the start then there must be something relatable in Quran too.

So after asking from one of scholars in Quran, i came to know that, at the end , there will be only one nation and thus there will be one currency but at that time there will be no technology. Because those who are muslim they do know when Israel (issa) will came into this world as a human (not prophet) then he will join imam Mahdi against Dajal and the fight will be fought using swords and such related weapons not with new technological weapons which also indicates that at that time, the chances of technology are zero which also indicates that then there will be no blockchain thus no BTC.

Note* this reply based on my religious beliefs so i hope in some way it could be of help for you or atleast give an idea to you.

A currency to fulfills the requirements of the prophecy has to be a centralized one, because that is the only way it can be controlled by a single party or institution which will enforce it to the whole world. And as we see, centralization's enthusiasts hate Bitcoin, due to its decentralized nature, as it guarantees freedom and privacy to its adopters. Bitcoin isn't accepted by most governments and businesses, so it's definitely not going to be enforced the other way round.

I believe the currency mentioned on the prophecy has something to do with the subversion of Bitcoin. That is, governments corrupt Bitcoin's nature and technology creating their own cryptocurrency following BTC's model, but in a centralized format. The "Last Currency" must be a kind of CBDC, although so far we have no idea of when it's going to happen and who is going to propose it.

OP, you aren't alone in that conception. I think it was a scriptural teaching that was loud in our country while we were teenagers. It's the ecumenical movement. Notably, such teaching has been overtaken by the lure of modern material appeals that no one seems to care anymore what happens next. People are getting less godly and to the point they're less concerned about rightful living.

Well, to tell you the truth that the "one-currency" spoken off (if it ever gets to that point) won't be Bitcoin. I say that with confidence because Bitcoin depends on the internet for its workability. Sadly, there are nations of the world that don't have steady electricity supply let alone internet facilities. How are those nations going to assess the "one-currency" then? So, obviously it's not Bitcoin.

I don’t want to be a breaker of bad news but this won’t happen. What makes us think that Bitcoin will be the last currency? Why there won’t be any other genius like Satoshi who is already making something bigger than Bitcoin (technically cryptographic space) and we will see more revolutionised way to transact. Obviously all of this is as hypothetical as the theory of preacher and there is only one way to prove it all, wait and watch. Smiley

Lol no! I don't know the religious background of your statement but if you are thinking Bitcoin will be the last currency in the world, you are surely over-thinking. Bitcoin can't be the only currency used in the world. It can neither be the reserve currency of the world. Bitcoin can't handle such huge affairs. The network has a limitation and Bitcoin can play well within the limit of its network. Anything beyond its capacity will destroy the network.

If something is used as the last currency of the world, it will be gold and nothing else.

Bitcoin is a great option for people who want financial independence.  However, it's a downright terrible option for centrally-planned economies.  Nation States rely on fiat because debt-based money allows them to set interest rates and unlimited supply means they can create new money from nothing in emergencies (or just in the event of irresponsible handling of the economy in general).  

As such, fiat currencies will continue to exist for as long as the concept of money itself still exists.  But who knows?  Maybe one day we'll attain that 'Star Trek' level of enlightenment and do away with money altogether.   Cheesy

I haven't heard of this before, so I decided to google it. This seems to be a great article because it overviews what the Bible actually says, referring to specific fragments that can be interpreted as relevant to the matter of one government and one currency. As one can see, there's nothing specific about a single currency there. Also, keep in mind that we're talking about the apocalypse here, so thinking that Bitcoin will be that single currency isn't really giving it a good reputation, considering that it's supposed to be the world at its lowest moral point, pretty much.
Only some of us are Christians, so to many these interpretations and prophecies don't matter at all, but those who are Christians must remember that there are very different approaches of religious hermeneutics (interpretation of texts): some believe in the literal meaning of the Bible, others advocate allegorical (figurative) meaning, and some argue for the double meaning. You don't need to take the Bible literally to count as a Christian, and you surely don't need to commit to far-fetched interpretations like that there will be only one currency at the end of the world, even if you do believe in the prophecy overall.

Many Bible scriptures cannot be taken literally, as their interpretation often goes beyond the surface meaning. This becomes especially relevant during the period commonly referred to as the "rapture," when it is believed that Satan will assume control of the world. The interpretation of these scriptures extends beyond mere words and encompasses the profound implications of such events.
The ops failed to cover this part of the article and he just narrow it down to current happenings alone, even though the ops is much a was that only a few per cent of people know about Bitcoin and even when Bitcoin attain national legal recognition,  just like in El Salvador it will still not be used by everybody and that applies to others nationals.
So Bitcoin is far from being a global currency and a tool to be used even if this passage interpretation plays out because I am sure that there won't be Bitcoin if rapture takes place.

That is a far reach. I understand the desire to connect things happening now to supernatural machinations but Bitcoin is just a decentralized currency created by an anonymous person. There is no more mystic beyond that.

Oh my god, are you real?

Quote
Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead,  so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666

You're telling me that Bitcoin is a sign of the coming of the Antichrist?

Besides, if you're a true believer of God you should refuse the mark, so you're making it look like all Bitcoiners have signed a pact with the Antichrist and all the no coiners are martyrs.
Seriously!!!! Let's keep religion out of this!!!

I think you mean the Revelation 13:16-18 which states that no one can buy and sell without the mark of the beast. It’s not a currency but something that was implant or tattoo to people in able to make a transaction. While the world will have a single currency to transact.

I doubt that this is Bitcoin since it's decentralized while the currency being mention in the Bible shows a centralization since there's someone controlling the people to use it. I think it will be the currency of the super power nation in case world war 3 happened or CBDC since this starting to be implemented globally.

Im a good reader an listener of the scripture, and I have gone through the book of revelation I just don't remember any part where a single currency was mentioned. All over the world we have different scholars, teaching from their own view and perspective of how they see the scripture.

having Bitcoin as the only one currency in the world, would be something impossible per say because most country has their own monetary system and local currency plus it's value depends on the economical state of the country.

A good world should have freedom.

We don't need a centralized power in Bitcoin blockchain as the only mean for transaction, trading, wealth storage and like we can not live without Bitcoin blockchain and bitcoin. Like we don't want to be forced to use only the US. dollar or any fiat currency.

Choices, we need choices and Bitcoin can not eliminate all choices globally. We will still have fiat currencies, soon CBDCs and altcoins, together with gold, other metals, and other things can be used as currencies, commodities etc.

Such world with only Bitcoin exists in memes and no where else.
